Notes from the field - Implementing Windows Autopatch in real-life

Windows Autopatch is a service that automates the process of updating Windows and Microsoft 365 Apps. It shifts the burden of planning and operating the update process from your IT team to Microsoft, freeing up your IT team to focus on other activities and tasks.
