Hello, great article – just a question – do you know how the client-side data of the report are gathered? I have a two tenants and in one, everything is in progress and there are not data from clients whatsoever and in the second one its half-to-half…
Never mind – just figured it out 😀 one tenant had policy for data collection created when there was no option for updates info to be collected 🙂
StaffThat’s good to hear!
@Lallanna, could you please tell us more on how you resolved it. 90% machines are showing in a pending state.
Great article, I’m trying to use this feature to deploy Windows 11 upgrade, the status of my test clients in this report all have an update state of “Offering” but the status hasn’t changed for a few days now. On the clients no feature update is showing as available in Windows Update. Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this?

did this help? we’re seeing the same issue where feature update (21H2) is showing as Offered – even though these devices are at 21H2
Hi ,
We are in the process of testing the new Gradual Deployment for the Feature update , we set a 2 week time frame and 3 days apart ,
All devices are “State = Pending” Substate = Scheduled” “Aggregated State = In Progress”
My understanding was that the update will be offered in Dynamically created groups every 3 days but seems they are just in this state .
Will that mean that after the deadline it will offer it to all devices at once or will do the gradual offering after the deadline ? should we keep waiting or is this not the normal behavior ?
When the status is Pending – Scheduled, is there anything we can do from an IT Admin perspective to force the update down? I have a load of devices which have this status but they are all devices which should get the update.
Even other devices of the same model and Windows 10 version already have the update.
Hi All – have a curious one with Feature Updates that seem to have suddenly ‘stopped’ working.
We have an estate of around 80 machines which are mostly Win10Pro, pure Azure AD (no hybrid etc), all Business Premium licenses. We want to start rolling out Win11 at some point and around 5 months or so ago did some testing with Feature Updates. Created a Feature Update profile to push Win11-22H2, created a Device Group and assigned a couple of test devices, assigned the device group to the profile and off we go – within a day or so both machines targeted were updated all OK. So far so good….. 👍
Back end of last week I decided to revisit this to begin pushing out to few more machines. Everything from my previous testing was all still in place, so I simply added a a couple more machines to the targeted device group, fired the machines up, made sure they were syncing within Intune / Azure and waited……… Nothing!
Now when I look at the Feature Update reports it doesn’t show status for ANY machines – even the previously successfully updated ones!? All status’ (In Progress, Success, Error, etc) all show a value of 0 (Zero). It’s almost as though the Device Group assigned to the profile is empty (which I know it’s not having rechecked numerous times!).
Other profiles and reporting for Expedited Quality Updates and Driver Updates are all running and showing fine and I’m happy with their levels of accuracy – so fairly happy elements such as Telemetry and Health Monitoring is running OK – it’s just Feature Updates which don’t seem to want to work.
Have also created parallel Feature Update profiles and Devices Groups etc to check and these did exactly the same – it does seem to be Feature Updates specifically that don’t want to work (needless to say the targeted machines aren’t actually receiving the Feature Update either – this isn’t simply a reporting issue!).
Has anyone seen anything similar (or better still got any answers!!)??
Many thanks all in anticipation,
