2.1.6.37 - 2022-09-28

Improvements

  • Added a missing tooltip to the ConfigMgr scan wizard button in the ConfigMgr tab.
  • Added clarity to the ‘copy’ button tooltips in the Publisher.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where All Devices and All Users assignments created in the Manage Assignments UI could be created with the wrong intent.
    • Note: If you created any new assignments in the Manage Assignment UI while on build 2.1.6.35 please check that they are correctly configured.
    • All Devices assignments default to ‘Uninstall’ intent.
    • All Users assignments default to ‘Required’ intent.

2.1.6.35 - 2022-09-23

​
Note: Did I miss 33 preview builds???? No, you did not. Patch My PC has started to increment version numbers automatically as changes are reviewed and merged. The result is preview builds having multiple internal builds before a public preview is released.

Features

  • Allow the same Azure group to be assigned multiple times for Intune assignments. This allows a group to be used as both an include, and an exclude.
  • Pass variables into pre and post-scripts.
    • Note: the %ProductName% and %VendorName% variables are Base64 encoded when they are passed to the pre and post-scripts. It will need to be decoded. Patch My PC will provide a sample PowerShell snippet to decode the resulting parameter.
    • Idea: PATCHMYPC-I-1348​
  • Extract content from ConfigMgr applications.
  • Extract content from WSUS updates.
  • Allow any app to have ‘conflicting processes’ configured

Improvements

  • Improved child-form handling in some cases, so they now open in the center of the parent form.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the wrong URL was used for Microsoft Graph batch requests in some cases.
  • Fixed a bug where the buttons in Managed Conflicting Process may not fit the text in some translations.
  • Fixed a bug where the ConfigMgr app options window is not resizable.
  • Fixed a bug where the Manage Conflicting Process Organization Name would not be set when a ConfigMgr application was revised.
  • Fixed a bug where settings could not be saved if the internet was unreachable.
  • Fix some typos 🙂

Features

  • Collect Logs button added to the Publisher. Will create a .zip file of files useful for troubleshooting.

Improvements

  • If the ConfigMgr applications are configured to remove the version from the name, and there is application retention configured we will now append the version to OLD versions of the app. This is to ensure that there is only one application with the same name.

Features

Improvements

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the Publisher would fail to parse a command line that had a parameter that occurred more than once. This would cause a content update every sync.

​

Features

Improvements

  • ConfigMgr database scan button is now available on the ConfigMgr apps tab as well as the Updates tab.
  • ScriptRunner will always use Intune-based folders when executing from an Intune app installation.

  • Fixed a bug where publishing would proceed even if a custom script failed to be processed.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where Recreate Detection Script option for ConfigMgr would cause the wrong ‘Installation Behavior’ to be set for user-based apps.
  • Fixed a bug where the Publisher and ScriptRunner would fail to parse a parameter with nested quotes and spaces.

  • The Manage Conflicting Processes notification will now display ‘update’ based language for an Intune Update. For example, the button will say ‘Close and Update’ instead of ‘Close and Install.’

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the ConfigMgr source folder validation would perform a partial match, such as \\server\source_apps being considered a conflict for \\server\source. We now append a trailing slash to the comparison.
  • Fixed a bug where the ‘Prevent Start…’ option for Manage Conflicting Process would throw an access denied error instead of the desired message box.
  • Fixed a bug where assignments would be copied from Intune app to Intune updates when the copy between tabs is used.
  • Fixed a bug where custom return codes set in the catalog were not processed for updates by the Publisher.
  • Fixed a bug where ConfigMgr applications would be revised every sync when the Manage Conflicting Process option is set to an option other than ‘Notify’

    • New option to use ‘maximum run time’ from the respective update or app.
      • ConfigMgr Update Max: Will use configured update ‘max run time’ as configured in ConfigMgr for the update.
        • Note: Update max run time must be edited before the update is deployed for a client to recognize the change.
      • ConfigMgr App Max: Will use the configured deployment time ‘max run time.’
      • Intune App/Update Max: Will use the maximum run time of an Intune Win32 app (60 minutes minus the 15-minute buffer).
    • Idea: PATCHMYPC-I-1516​
  • Send an alert if the Publisher failed to auto-update.
  • Send an alert when the Publisher is updated
  • Add time zone to Teams/Slack Webhook notification

  • Fixed a bug where Intune email reports would not include the warning regarding missing local content for applications

2.0.8.2 - 2021-08-05

Improvements

  • Export the list of enabled products and their right-click configurations to a CSV. This option is available in the Advanced tab of the Publisher. Only enabled products are exportable.
  • Publisher will validate the ConfigMgr application source path. A path is considered invalid if it is not a UNC path, or if the path is in use by a Software Update Deployment Package. Existing invalid configurations will not be impacted, but there will be an alert via email or Teams if alerts are enabled.

Improvements

  • Added tooltips to fields in the scan wizards to improve accessibility.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the Manage Conflicting Process UI may continue to append text instead of having a countdown when it is set to ‘Do not allow user deferral…’

  • Fixed a bug where the Intune Assignment UI would allow an invalid grace period/restart/snooze configuration.
  • Fixed a bug where PatchMyPC-ScriptRunner would create an invalid command line for an MSI uninstall in some cases.

2.0.7.1 - 2021-07-07

Features

  • Manage Conflicting Process ‘Close and Update’ button will now call the CloseMainWindow first. If the conflicting application is still running after 20 seconds we fall back to the Kill method.
    • This gives the user 20 seconds to respond to any ‘save’ prompts or other app-closing windows.
    • Idea: PATCHMYPC-I-1277​
  • Pre/Post scripts for uninstall
  • Manage Conflicting Process settings also apply to uninstall. This ensures that a user will be prompted to close software for the uninstall as well.
  • Allow multiple webhooks so alerts are posted to multiple endpoints.
  • MSI uninstall performed by Scriptrunner will append REBOOT=ReallySuppress to the uninstall command.

    • Script Version: 3.1
  • Fixed a bug where double-clicking an item in the Intune App Manager would cause an ‘Index out of Range’ unhandled exception. This now opens the Manage Assignment wizard as expected.
  • Fixed a bug where ConfigMgr applications with only user-based deployment types would have the checkbox set to allow installation during a task sequence, which is not allowed.
  • Fixed a bug where the UI notification log file may not be created if the folder does not exist.

Features

  • Add support to re-sign updates.

  • Set ErrorAction to SilentlyContinue for extra regkey validation checks to suppress errors in the event the key does not exist.
  • Add a delay in Scriptrunner if the main installer exits in less than 2 seconds. This is to account for installers that spawn child processes.

  • Added notes to the pre/post script window to help clarify the feature functionality.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where software may be marked for revision during every sync of the Publisher. This would occur when PreventConflictingProcessRestart was in use and the KillProcess was set instead of Notify.

​

2.0.4.1 - 2021-05-05

Features

  • Send alerts to Slack
  • Reverted a Scriptrunner change which flagged the exe to always run as Administrator. This is in preparation for supporting user-based applications in Intune and ConfigMgr.

Fixes

  • When a user or admin category was selected on a ConfigMgr application the Publisher would create a revision of the application every synchronization. Now a revision will only be created if a user or admin category needs to be added.

  • Define ConfigMgr scopes inside the Publisher service
    • Idea: PATCHMYPC-I-962​
    • Note: This requires updated permissions. The ‘Import Role’ option in the Publisher will import the role with proper permissions or you can refer to this article.

Improvements

  • The Intune and ConfigMgr scan wizard ‘Export’ buttons now prompt for whether the filter should be applied to the export.
  • Improve how Timestamping is handled in some scenarios.

Fixes

  • Connections to Intune may not respect the proxy configuration set in the Publisher.
  • ‘Show Package Details…’ right-click option would not load as expected.
  • CVE Wizard would not load as expected.
  • SSRS dashboards would report a negative % for compliance in some scenarios. The reports can be reinstalled if you are affected by following the same process as the initial install which will overwrite the reports.

2.0.2.1 - 2021-04-14

Features

  • Added the Usage Statistics group in the General tab that will show usage statitics
  • Changed the license input to display only the 20 character license id and not the full license URL

Improvements

  • Improved the speed of Intune application deletion by using batch calls to Microsoft Graph
  • Options related to WSUS have been moved from the Advanced tab to the Options button in the Updates tab

Fixes

  • The classification field in the Intune Apps Manager is not populated for Updates
  • Update revision doesn’t take account of republished updates

2.0.1.4 - 2021-03-30

Features

  • Change description text and icon for Intune Win32 applications
  • Retain N-X apps in ConfigMgr when set to ‘Create a new application…’ is enabled.
  • Retain N-X apps in ConfigMgr when set to ‘Update existing application…’ is enabled.

Improvements

  • The scan wizard found application count is now updated to reflect applications found with the specified filter.
  • Scriptrunner will now clean up leftover ‘Image File Execution Options’ registry keys. This helps prevent unexpected blocking of application launch in the event scriptrunner crashes and leaves behind some of these keys. We have also update the Manage Conflicting Processes docs to provide additional information for this scenario.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where assignments may not be added to an existing Intune Win32 application during Publisher sync.
  • Fixed a bug where the Publisher UI would crash if the ‘Modify Updates Wizard’ was launched on a computer which does not have the WSUS role.
  • Fixed a bug where only the first 1000 Intune applications are returned which can cause Application lookup failures via Microsoft Graph.

2.0.1.3 - 2021-03-18

Features

  • Intune Scoping Support
    • There is a new right-click option for Intune applications and updates which lets you ‘Manage scope tags.’
    • Scope tags will be copied from the previous PMPC application or update to the new version during a Publisher sync.
    • Requires new permission to be added to the Azure App Registration
      • DeviceManagementRBAC.Read.All
    • Idea: PATCHMYPC-I-1029​

Improvements

  • Wait to delete local content repository files until the end of the Publisher sync if the option to ‘Delete the update file in the local repository after publishing’ is selected.
    • In some cases, customers had the same binary needed for two different publish actions, and the second publish would fail because the binary had been deleted.
