Hi,
I want to know Windows 11 preview update will install in our organization laptops automatically? We don't want to update windows 11 preview in our organization computers. We are using Azure AD and Intune for manage windows update policy. Please suggest how to stop Windows 11 preview update?
Also, we don't want to stop any security update and cumulative update for windows 10 our organization. Windows 10 will update normally.
Windows 10 feature update will continue after version 21H1 ? or it will update directly to windows 11 from 21H1?
Kindly suggest.
Thank you in advance.
Rocky

What channel do you have your Windows Update ring configured to use currently? If it isn't set to insiders, then you shouldn't get it.
Hi,
Thank you for reply.
Currently using Semi-Annual Channel for feature update.

Hi,
Just to confirm, We run Intune (Endpoint Manager) and our Staff devices are set to update according to Servicing Channel: Semi-Annual Channel.
Can you confirm that Windows 11 will NOT be pushed out at any point, as opposed to 'shouldn't'.
Regards,
Trevor

Can we please get an answer to this question
What configuration do we need in Intune to prevent Windows 11 being pushed?
See the note here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/whats-new/windows-11-plan#windows-11-availability
"If you use Windows Update for Business to manage feature update deployments today, you will need to leverage the Target Version policy rather than Feature Update deferrals to move from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Deferrals are great for quality updates or to move to newer version of the same product (from example, from Windows 10, version 20H2 to 21H1), but they cannot migrate a device between products (from Windows 10 to Windows 11).
Also, Windows 11 has a new End User License Agreement. If you are deploying with Windows Update for Business Target Version or with Windows Server Update Services, you are accepting this new End User License Agreement on behalf of the end-users within your organization."

"Your managed devices will NOT automatically upgrade to #Windows11.
For #WUfB you'll need to specifically select/enter "Windows 11" on the Feature Update Deployments page in Intune or the Target release version policy. Deferrals alone won't move you to windows 11."

@Nick Hogarth is right. No need to be afraid of getting Windows 11 since it is not officially released yet. Also, make sure you check your Windows update policies because you should be more worried about upcoming Windows 10 feature updates that can be automatically installed. Best way is to control these updates with feature update policies as Nick mentioned.
