Configuring Windows Product Version and Target Feature Update Version

We can specify which Windows product version and target version for Feature Updates we would like to receive.

• For the Windows product version, the acceptable values can be Windows 10 and Windows 11. For more information about Windows product versions, you can refer to https://aka.ms/WindowsTargetVersioninfo.
• For the Target version for Feature Updates, the acceptable can be 21H1, 22H2, etc. To know the release information of each Windows product, you can check: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/release-information

After determining the Windows product version and the target version for Feature Updates, you can apply the settings using one of the following methods:

1. Using following registry file, put the Windows production version in ProductVersion, and the Target version for Feature Updates in TargetReleaseVersionInfo. For example, if you would like to receive Feature Updates no newer than Windows 10 22H2, then following registry file does the work.

   Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
   
   [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
   "TargetReleaseVersion"=dword:00000001
   "ProductVersion"="Windows 10"
   "TargetReleaseVersionInfo"="22H2"
   

2. Using group policy, navigate to setting: Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Update -> Windows Update for Business -> Select the target Feature Update version, enable this setting and then input the desired Windows product version and Target version for Feature Updates in the corresponding text boxes.
