Rolling Back a Patch

When patching there may be times that rolling back a patch is necessary. Here are some steps and related information to that process. 

• This feature is currently only available for Windows-based devices. If a patch offers a rollback option, refer to these instructions:

• Another option is to use an available and Automox Verified Worklet called Rollback Windows Patches. 

  • In the console, go to Manage → Worklet Catalog.  Select Rollback Windows Patches. 

  • This worklet is designed to remove one or multiple KBs from a device. Add KBs by placing the KB number (for example, KB1234567) between single quotes in the $KBNumbers variable.

    

• If you want to block something that is released, refer to the following instructions. This reduces the remediation footprint.
