Not really CM related I know, but there are some knowledgeable folks here about 
all things MS so I thought I'd float this by you all too.  I sent this to 
patchmanagement.org a little bit ago too.

So, I'm looking into copying all the Windows 10 group policy admx's to our 
domain central store and found this:  On the left is the Windows 10 
windowsupdate local policy from a windows 10 machine, on the right is the 
current windowsupdate policy from my central store.  Notice the descriptions 
for "defer upgrade" and "turn off the upgrade to the latest version of windows 
through windows update".  The new one requires "At least Windows 10...", and 
the old one requires "Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1 Update".  If I replace this 
admx in my domain central store, it is no longer possible to turn off the 
upgrade via policy for Windows 7 and 8?  And if I replace windowsupdate.admx 
with the old one so it can, can Windows 10 no longer defer an upgrade?  Should 
these really be mutually exclusive like this?  We're going to have a mix of 7, 
8, and 10 for a long while...  All other policies appear to be the same.
