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
✓
The app assignment schedule is configured to update.
The app update frequency is controlled by the app assignment schedule. Option D is correct because Win32 apps in Intune update based on the assignment schedule; if it is not configured to update, the app will not receive updates. Option A is incorrect because detection rules are used for installation detection, not update scheduling. Option B is incorrect because even if the app is assigned as 'Required', updates only occur if the schedule allows. Option C is incorrect because the Intune Management Extension being up to date does not control update frequency.
