Windows Updates Report
Windows feature and quality update status across all managed devices. Track update compliance, identify devices running outdated versions, and monitor update deployment progress.
Overview
The Windows Updates Report provides comprehensive visibility into the update status of your Windows device fleet. Monitor both feature update adoption (e.g., Windows 11 23H2) and quality update compliance (monthly security patches) to ensure your environment is protected.
Feature Updates
Track which Windows versions your devices are running:
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| Windows 11 23H2 | Latest feature update |
| Windows 11 22H2 | Previous feature update |
| Windows 10 22H2 | Last supported Windows 10 version |
| Older versions | End of service or approaching end of life |
Warning: Devices running older versions may not receive security updates and represent a security risk. Plan migrations to supported versions.
Quality Updates
Monitor monthly security patch compliance:
- Current — Devices running the latest quality update
- 1 month behind — Missed the most recent update cycle
- 2+ months behind — Significantly outdated, high risk
