    I use WSUS to provide updates to Windows 10 computers on a disconnected, offline, and air-gapped network.  The workstations are using Windows Version 1709.

    Question 1: Which of these WSUS products must I select in order to get Quality Updates* for these Windows 10 computers?  

    Question 2: Which of these WSUS products must I select in order to get Feature Updates* for these Windows 10 computers?

    Please have a look at:

    https://www.urtech.ca/2016/12/solved-what-do-the-windows-10-product-names-mean-in-wsus/

    This should help you with both of your answers. To answer #2 directly, you need the Upgrades classification checked and Windows 10 Dynamic Update

    Adam,

    Thank you for answering #2.  I read the link you provided and it does not answer question #1.  Can you provide the answer to question #1?

    Thank you,
