We have an Intune policy in place to manage Windows updates and have it set to allow users to check for updates. However, many of our users have this option greyed out. We don't have any physical servers pushing out GPO's and cannot find what is blocking this. Are there other places I can look on what can be controlling this?

Check if the local policy "Remove access to use all Windows Update Features" has been enabled. It may be set in HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate, "SetDisableUXWUAccess" set to 1 (which will also block the option).
