Software Update steps have been removed from the Windows 10 IPU Task Sequences. The service is resumed.

The work has been completed and imaging tested.

Please note that you will have to recreate your Task Sequence Media and use the May2019 version – \\ws2.lboro.ac.uk\DesktopResource\Windows\TaskSequenceMedia

If you have any issue then please log a case with the Service Desk

Dear Colleagues,

On Friday 3rd May, from 8:00 am to 9:00 am, the Windows 10 Staff Task Sequences and Windows Upgrade Task Sequences will be edited in order to remove the Software Update installation step. This step was causing the Task Sequence to run for long periods of time or time out.

The Windows Software Updates will now be injected into the image and the rest of the Software Updates will be installed post build.

The Task Sequences will be at risk during this period. It is therefore recommended that you do not attempt to image any Windows 10 staff computers at this time.

The Task Sequence changes have now been made and tested. If you encounter any issues then please log a case with the Service Desk.

Dear Colleagues,

Configuration Manager will be unavailable during the above dates due to being upgraded to the latest version which is 1810. The upgrade is required in order to be fully supported by Microsoft and to take advantage of the new features.

During this time you will be unable to reimage or upgrade PCs or run applications via the Software Centre.
Once the upgrade is completed and a full QA carried out then a further correspondence will be sent.

Please see below a list of the February 2019 MS Software Updates. The updates will be deployed to your PCs today. If you have any problems with the updates or do not receive the updates, then please let me know. It is imperative that the updates get installed on as many PCs as possible at this stage of the roll out so that we can test against any potential issues.

For those of you doing the Mee Too checks, please let me know if you get any issues.

If your PC name has changed because of a Windows 10 upgrade then please provide the name.
