Hello,

Are the uninstall and repair command lines replaced when the application is updated? I'm trying to use a custom repair command for the Teams x64 application and it was changed back to the PatchMyPC default. Can an option be added to not override a custom uninstall command? Also, it would be nice if the uninstall command could be turned off per app as well as the repair feature. We don't always want to enable those options.

This request covers custom repair command.

Hello,

I'm looking to start using the application publishing feature to keep frequently updated software current. Something I noticed is that there are no OS requirements on any of the applications with architecture specific versions. This presents a problem since we use a single deploy collection that could contain both x86 and x64 versions of Windows. What I'd like to see is a way to either combine the two architectures into a single application with multiple deployment types, or a way in the PatchMyPC tool to edit those settings similar to how you can modify the user experience and icon/properties.

Edge, as an example, has both a x86 and x64 application. The x64 will show up for install on x86 versions of Windows, as will the x86 on x64 versions of Windows. This means I need two deploy collections to prevent this from happening.

Thanks!

I'm setting up and ADR for our third party updates. Some download okay, some error out with "HttpSendRequest failed HTTP_STATUS_NOT_FOUND" in the PachDownloader.log file. In RuleEngine.og I see
"Failed to download the update from internet. Error = 404". The URL is correct and works when copied to IE and tested. What's weird is if I copy the WSUS url to IE launched at SYSTEM, the .cab file doesn't download. I don't think this a PatchMyPC error or problem, but was hoping someone might have a simple solution before I engage Premier Support.

Thanks,

Jim
