End-Of-Life Apps in Patch My PC Cloud

Applies to: Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud

There are times when we need to remove a product from the Patch My PC (PMPC) App Catalog, primarily because the product either:

  • Goes End-Of-Life (EOL) and is no longer supported or maintained by the vendor.

  • Other compatibility issues related to silent install or versioning.

Note

See How Products are Handled at End-Of-Life (EOL) or Become Incompatiblearrow-up-right for more information about how we handle EOL apps in general, other reasons for removing apps from our App Catalog, and a searchable List of Products Removed due to End-of-Life or Compatibility Issuesarrow-up-right.

In PMPC Cloud, when an app goes EOL:

  • The app no longer appears in App Catalog.

  • Any existing deployments of the app will be flagged with the EOL indicator in the Deployments node.

  • If the app has been discovered by PMPC Cloud Discovery and is currently being managed, the app itself will be flagged with the EOL indicator on the Managed tab of the Discovery node.

If an app that is part of an MSP App Set is marked as EOL:

  • Any existing deployments of the app will be flagged with the EOL indicator in the App Set.
