Explanation

When an update rings policy is paused in Microsoft Intune, the pause lasts for exactly 35 days, after which the policy automatically resumes without any manual intervention. Starting from November 1: November has 30 days, so 35 days later lands on December 6 (November 1 + 30 remaining days in November = December 1, plus 5 more days = December 6). On December 6, the pause expires and devices will next attempt to update according to the policy. This 35-day automatic expiry is a fixed behavior of Intune update rings pause functionality.
