This error (0x80246002) happens if you delete update(s) from WSUS after that update(s) was already downloaded into a deployment package in SCCM then you attempt to republish it and deploy it again in SCCM.

Yes, this was exactly the cause.  I realised after I had done this that I had messed up, but couldn't figure out a way out of the issue.

We are planning to release a new update (Version 1.2.3) to our publishing service either tomorrow (February 20, 2019) or Thursday.

Nice timing.  This mostly seems to fix the issue (I can republish applications fine) however I'm finding that the Patch My PC application frequently forgets the products I've selected, particularly after I make any changes.  The application will show the products after I sync them, but the sync log shows nothing is synchronised and if I re-open the application, all the applications have been unchecked.  This has happened both with the beta (1.2.3) and production (1.2.2) versions.  It's the third or fourth time it's happened since I first installed the application a couple of days ago.

Whilst initially trying out the PatchMyPC catalog for the first time, I realised I had incorrectly deployed VLC without the option to remove the desktop shortcut after upgrade.  Since changing this option, every subsequent install

From what I can gather, I've managed to screw up the hash for the published app, but can't figure out how I can fix it.  Unless I'm missing something, I can't see anything in the FAQ for this.

Can anyone offer some suggestions?

EDIT: we renamed the topic to include the error code for better indexing and searches and to help anyone else in the future.
