OneDrive

OneDrive auto-updates based on either the Insiders, Standard, or Deferred ring cycle. OneDrive checks for available updates every 24 hours when it's running as part of your endpoint.

The production ring (which is the default) receives updates every 20 days, whereas the deferred ring gives you a bit more flexibility as it updates every 2–3 months. During this timeframe, customers can deploy updates on their own, allowing them to record precisely when their software is updated. When the number of days is exceeded, the update will apply automatically:

Important Note

Microsoft reserves the right to bypass the 60-day grace period for critical updates.
