**Microsoft will enable hotpatch by default in Windows Autopatch for eligible devices managed via Microsoft Intune or the Microsoft Graph API starting May 2026.** The change means security fixes can apply without requiring a restart once devices meet hotpatch prerequisites and have installed the April 2026 baseline; administrators can opt out per device group or tenant and existing update configurations remain unchanged.
