Glad to help! Feel free to reach back out if you run into any trouble.

This would still apply as well. Note it is very specifically if an argument accepts an array of strings.

Hi there!

We have some documentation for this. We encode the values to ensure they do not cause any parsing issues. See the documentation below for an example of decoding the value in your script.

We have a fix for this in preview, and it will also be in our next production release.

Can you please send us the zip file from the 'Collect Diagnostics' button on the general tab? Also, if you can get the PatchMyPC-ScriptRunner.log from a client that tries to run that install, that would be good too.

Send them to [email protected], please.

Hello,

This issue was resolved by Microsoft at this time. The latest PowerToys installer that Patch My PC provides should work as expected.

Hello,

This is a known issue that we have listed below. You can search for PowerToys and find it. We have removed this product from the catalog until it is resolved.

Hello, this is a known limitation of the MSP-type files in our Publisher.

It is something we are actively working to improve.

Hello, WSUS does not use package.xml

All the parameters are passed as arguments directly to scriptrunner and /installpackage is not used.

Hi there,

This forum is for support relating to the Patch My PC product and catalog.

A question like this might be better served on the WinAdmins Discord (https://discord.gg/winadmins), or on https://reddit.com/r/sccm

Hello,

We do not provide support for troubleshooting Windows 10.

This forum is for the Patch My PC product that we sell.

Hi there!

What is the specific file that is triggering this?

I suspect this is PatchMyPC-ScriptRunner.exe. This file is updated somewhat regularly and because of this Symantec will trigger on it occasionally. Note the 'Current Reputation' and 'Historical Reputation' that 'There is some evidence that this file is trustworthy'

When we first update this binary we see the occasional customer who will have this flagged. As more customers update and Symantec is aware of the file the alerts stop based n their updated definitions.

For more context, ScriptRunner is our wrapper for doing installations and does have bits of code that can do a lot of tasks as system and can be a trigger to AV. This includes user impersonation and querying various bits of system information.

Are you possibly able to trust a signing certificate?

Hello,

We do not officially support using this for other purposes, but you are more than welcome to interpret the package.xml files and attempt to use them for your own purposes assuming you have a PMPC licence.

We would not provide support.

Hello,

This is due to a bug that was introduced in version 2.0.5.0 of the publisher.

We have just released version 2.0.6.0 of the Publisher which resolves this issue.

Can you please update and try again?
