Support and General Questions (Enterprises Using ConfigMgr and Intune) / Hide desktop shortcut for cust...
Last post by mlafifi - Today at 10:37:54 AMHello
I am using the Patch My PC Custom Apps feature (side note: it works so well!) and the MSI leaves a desktop shortcut for the app. We would rather this not occur. The option to "Delete desktop shortcut(s) created by this application" that we normally choose in the pmpc app is greyed out/disabled. The MSI is not made in-house, it is vendor provided. (The MSIs that we make in-house we do not choose to leave the desktop shortcut). What is the best practice for ensuring these desktop shortcuts are either not created or removed after install?

Support and General Questions (Enterprises Using ConfigMgr and Intune) / Re: update assignment confusio...
Last post by elzabay2 - Today at 06:25:47 AMHi Steven,
When you mark an app as "available" (not required) for all users in the PMPC console, it means users can choose to install the app if they want, but it's not mandatory. For corresponding updates, since there isn't an "available" option, you'd typically mark them as "required" for all users. However, PMPC/Intune won't force install updates for apps that users haven't installed. The update assignment applies to users who have the app installed, ensuring they receive the necessary updates. If a user doesn't have the specific app installed, the corresponding updates won't be applicable to their device.
Hope this clears things up! If you need further assistance, don't hesitate to ask.
Best regards,
UK Dissertation Writer

Last post by harryelf - April 17, 2024, 04:34:01 AMTook some time but I found out what happened: when PatchMyPC starts it automatically takes the keyboard focus and any keyboard input is directed to the toggle button near "Main Software", when then the space button is pressed all software is automatically selected for installation. As I use the space button very much (for stating/stopping audio) the only thing that wonders me is why this has not happened earlier...
Technically this may not be a bug, however I think it is a very good idea to change this behavior for it has a large risk of creating unintended (and unattended) installations of a large amount of software.
with kind regards, Harry
