Last post by samantha - Today at 03:40:04 AMYou can upload the response.varfile to a shared network location accessible by all machines where PMPC will install SoapUI. In the PMPC application settings for SoapUI, locate the installation command line field. Instead of the original command, enter the following:
Code Select
SoapUI-x64-5.7.0.exe -q -overwrite -varfile "\\server\share\path\to\response.varfile"Replace `\\server\share\path\to` with the actual network path to your `response.varfile`. #2

Last post by Kyle (Patch My PC) - April 26, 2024, 07:49:49 AMHello Eric,
We are a bit limited in terms of what we can provide from an Intune reporting perspective. You can use the following PowerBI report in conjunction with the App. Manager Utility to get some general reporting information:
https://patchmypc.com/power-bi-reports-for-microsoft-intune-third-party-updates
Beyond that, we are currently in the process of developing/enhancing our Advanced Insights reporting solution to work with the Intune data set. More news on that will be released later this year.

Last post by DarkfangQC - April 26, 2024, 07:10:55 AMHello!
Is there a way to have an overview of all deployed PMPC updates from Intune ?
It's kind of annoying to check the status of each and every deployed apps. Custom Workbook in Azure maybe ?
Thanks

Last post by Dan Gough - April 26, 2024, 05:44:21 AMFurthermore; it looks like you were getting an error uninstalling an MSI because Windows Installer was looking for the cached MSI in order to perform the uninstall. So it wasn't a matter of where the PSADT Remove-MsiApplications function was looking for the MSI, it's more that Windows Installer itself was looking for it. When this happens, you can update the sourcelist for the app as above.

Last post by Dan Gough - April 26, 2024, 04:57:21 AMHi,
Firstly, if this is an SCCM application, then SCCM has native functionality to manage the sourcelist; just browse to the MSI file via the bottom of the Programs tab of the Deployment Type properties. The Patch My PC Publisher does not fill this in, which is something I will raise.
If you want to add/replace the SourceList via PSADT though, there is a community extension for it here that you might find useful:
https://discourse.psappdeploytoolkit.com/t/msi-sourcelist-and-psadt/879
Otherwise, for a more manual approach using the registry, you can get the ProductCode of an MSI application via PSADT (which looks at the uninstall keys like HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall):
$ProductCode = (Get-InstalledApplication -Name 'Acrobat').ProductCode
Or native PowerShell:
$ProductCode = (Get-Package -Provider MSI | Where Name -match 'Acrobat').FastPackageReference
Then you will need to convert that GUID to a new format:
$CompressedGuid = -join (($ProductCode | Select-String -Pattern '^\{?(.{8})-(.{4})-(.{4})-(.{2})(.{2})-(.{2})(.{2})(.{2})(.{2})(.{2})(.{2})\}?$' -AllMatches).Matches.Groups[1..11].Value | ForEach-Object { $CharArray = $_.ToCharArray(); [System.Array]::Reverse($CharArray); -join $CharArray })
Then you can look up the reg key "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\$CompressedGuid\SourceList".

Support and General Questions (Enterprises Using ConfigMgr and Intune) / PADT - RemoveMSIApplication
Last post by samuel.olsson - April 26, 2024, 03:25:58 AMHi,
I was wondering how these actions are performed when calling for RemoveMSIApplication in PADT.
Reason I ask, is that I'm trying to change the value returned as LastUsedSource to point it to a different location.
Thanks in advance!

Support and General Questions (Enterprises Using ConfigMgr and Intune) / Re: Prompt for Update when ins...
Last post by Liviu (Patch My PC) - April 26, 2024, 12:13:36 AMHey PaulKlerkx,
The Disable Self-Updater option only works for software that allow the configuration of the software updates check by setting an argument or a registry entry.
Handbrake, Keepass and Audacity don't. If you right-click on them in the Patch My PC Publisher, you'll find that Disable Self-Updater option is greyed out.
As I mentioned, this is due to these installers not supporting configuration of the self updater via command line or registry.
As an example, to disable the automatic check for updates for Audacity, you will have to update a Config file in the USER %appData% folder. More details here.
ConfigMgr / Intune will install the software as the SYSTEM account. To update files for the other user profiles you will have to use a custom script.
This should not apply to Google Chrome, however.
To troubleshoot this, we will need more details.
Are you deploying Google Chrome from ConfigMgr or Intune?
Are you deploying it as an Application or as an Update?
We also need some logs from the client side: Collecting Log Files to Send to Support for ConfigMgr and Intune
Once you have the logs, please open a support case.
