# Recreate a Patch My PC Cloud Deployment

*Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud*

Using Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud, you can delete software from Intune and recreate it to retrigger the deployment on the targeted resources.

To recreate a deployment:

1. From the **Deployments** page, click the ellipsis (**⋮**) beside the relevant deployment you want to recreate and click **Recreate**.<br>

   \
   The **Status** of the deployment changes to **In Progress** and the **Recreating the deployment&#x20;*****\<deployment\_name>*****&#x20;has started** message is displayed.<br>

   \
   Once the deployment has been recreated, the portal auto-refreshes and the **Status** changes to **Success**.<br>

{% hint style="success" %}
**Tip**

You can also click **Recreate** on the property page of a deployment to recreate it.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**

If the deployment you are recreating has [Update Rings](/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/update-rings.md) enabled, clicking **Recreate** will result in duplicate versions of the apps being created in Intune. Any existing assignments will be automatically moved from the old version to the new, recreated version.

Also, if the deployment you are recreating has [App Dependencies](/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/deploy-app/configurations-tab/additional-tools/dependencies.md), clicking **Recreate** creates a new app, creates any dependencies, deletes the dependencies for the old app, and finally deletes the old app from Intune.
