MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
Which TWO actions should you take to ensure that Windows Update for Business settings are applied to all Windows 10 devices in your organization? (Choose two)
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse WSUS with Windows Update for Business, thinking both are required, or they mistakenly believe a compliance policy can enforce update ring settings, when in fact update rings are a separate policy type in Intune.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Create an update ring policy in Microsoft Intune.
B is correct because Windows Update for Business (WUfB) policies are configured through update ring policies in Microsoft Intune, which control how and when Windows 10 devices receive updates from Microsoft's update servers. This allows organizations to manage update deployment without needing on-premises infrastructure like WSUS.
