Title: Intune Maintenance Window
Post by: laingd on March 30, 2026, 06:00:06 AM
I read Rudy Ooms recent article on the new Intune Maintenance Window feature with great interest.

- Maintenance-window-os-drivers-updates-intune | Blog | PatchmyPC (https://patchmypc.com/blog/maintenance-window-os-drivers-updates-intune/)

We are planning Entra Joined Windows 11 devices protected by Universal Write Filter (or Faronics Deepfreeze-equivalent) and need to ensure that any update activity happens within a strict maintenance/thaw window.

Intune Maintenance Windows appears to control OS, Driver and Firmware updates. Good.

- But does it control PmPc Win32App install & updates?

Or other payloads such as

- MDM Device Certificate Renewal
- IME PowerShell Scripts / Proactive Remediations
- Office and Edge Updates
- Store App updates
- etc.

Kind regards
Doug

Hi Doug, I checked this with Rudy. As mentioned in his blog article, the new maintenance window functionality in Intune will apply to operating system, driver, and firmware updates only. This means that, unfortunately, they don't apply to our app updates, or any other type of updates, for that matter.
