Are superseded updates in a Software Update Group (ADR generated) still deployed?
The SUG and update shows a orange icon but the deployment is active.
Do I need to delete the deployment manually as I want to deploy the latest Cumulative updates only?

by checking, it seems this is a me-cm-updates related case, add the correct tag and remove intune-enrollment tag
Superseded Updates: A Superseded Update (or updates) is a complete replacement of a previous release, or releases。 Expired Updates: Expired Updates are just as the name suggests – Microsoft has removed the update from the list of valid updates. Superseded Updates could be deployed to client in sccm. If we are ready not to install the superseded Updates, we could make these configurations as per following picture: ![22005-921.png][1] ************************************************************************* If the response is helpful, please click "Accept Answer" and upvote it.

The above answer, while is contains correct information, is not really complete. As @Jörgen Nilsson noted, yes ConfigMgr will mark superseded updates as expired per your site configuration and these expired updates will be purged from the site after 7 days if they are not deployed. However, even if deployed, expired updates will not be considered for installation by clients.
Also note that just being part of an update group doesn't mean an update is deployed. That update group must also be deployed.
Yes, to the core of the question though that deployed superseded updates will be installed on targeted devices unless the update that superseded them is also deployed to the device.
You don't have to explicitly clean up the update groups containing superseded updates but it can help prevent confusion. This is one reason I prefer to reuse existing update groups with my ADRs using the update criterion noted by @Amandayou-MSFT
Hi,
You control how superseded updates are expired under Software Update in the admin console under Site\Software Update Point. If they are expired immediately or not.
