Got an issue with SCCM, upgrading a device to 25H2 via Device Collection and have deployed this update to the collection, but SCCM fails to show the Feature Update in Software Center, anyone else having this issue? **Just as an update, I've downloaded the correct Feature Upgrade under Software Library > All Software Updates > and selected the correct one. From there, I've downloaded and re-created the deployment package and selected the correct path to where I want it stored. From there, once the deployment package was created, I've deployed to a collection containing my test machine, and I am unable to see the Feature Upgrade in Software Center

    Had a phone call with Microsoft. Has your software Center been updated to 2403 or higher? If so, this is a GPO setting! It can also be set locally to test out. Go to Computer Configuration --> Administrative templates --> Windows Components --> Windows Update --> Manage Updates offered from Windows Server Update Service (if this does not exist, you need new admx and adml files for the WindowsUpdate template). Enable the setting Specify source service for specific classes of Windows Update Service - then set the 4 options to Windows Server Update Services.

    I had a few 25H2 that were built with ISOs, but not getting monthly updates even though SCCM was saying that they were compliant. Setting this let me see the monthly updates in Software Center and apply them successfully. On 23H2 systems, I now see the 25H2 upgrade as well, but this is now failing. Perhaps you can have more luck with it as I continue to troubleshoot.

    If SCCM is not showing the Windows 11 25H2 Feature Update in the Software Center, there could be several reasons for this issue. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can consider:

    1. Check Deployment Status: Ensure that the update has been properly deployed to the device collection. Verify the deployment status in the SCCM console.
    2. Client Policy Retrieval: Make sure the SCCM client on the target device has successfully retrieved the latest policy. You can trigger a manual policy retrieval by going to the client settings and selecting "Machine Policy Retrieval & Evaluation Cycle."
    3. Software Update Point: Confirm that the Software Update Point is configured correctly and that the Windows 11 25H2 update is synchronized and available.
    4. Logs Review: Check the SCCM client logs, such as UpdatesDeployment.log and WUAHandler.log, for any errors or messages that could provide more insight into why the update is not appearing.
    5. Compatibility: Ensure that the device meets the requirements for Windows 11 25H2 and that there are no compatibility issues preventing the update from being displayed.
    6. Group Policy: If applicable, review any Group Policies that might affect the visibility of updates in Software Center.

    If the issue persists after these checks, consider reaching out to Microsoft support or consulting the SCCM community for further assistance.
