Support and General Questions (Enterprises Using ConfigMgr and Intune) / Re: Prompt for Update when ins...
Last post by Liviu (Patch My PC) - Today at 12:13:36 AMHey PaulKlerkx,
The Disable Self-Updater option only works for software that allow the configuration of the software updates check by setting an argument or a registry entry.
Handbrake, Keepass and Audacity don't. If you right-click on them in the Patch My PC Publisher, you'll find that Disable Self-Updater option is greyed out.
As I mentioned, this is due to these installers not supporting configuration of the self updater via command line or registry.
As an example, to disable the automatic check for updates for Audacity, you will have to update a Config file in the USER %appData% folder. More details here.
ConfigMgr / Intune will install the software as the SYSTEM account. To update files for the other user profiles you will have to use a custom script.
This should not apply to Google Chrome, however.
To troubleshoot this, we will need more details.
Are you deploying Google Chrome from ConfigMgr or Intune?
Are you deploying it as an Application or as an Update?
We also need some logs from the client side: Collecting Log Files to Send to Support for ConfigMgr and Intune
Once you have the logs, please open a support case.

Last post by PaulKlerkx - April 25, 2024, 10:05:54 PMHi, we have "Disable self-updater" set at "All Products" level, however after installing Audacity 3.5.0, it prompts that "Audacity 3.5.1 Alpha is available with an "install update" button. Is this expected behaviour, or is there something I have missed to stop this popup?

Last post by Dan Gough - April 25, 2024, 01:40:58 AMThere is a script in our community scripts repo that handles the user group:

As for WSL, perhaps try a pre-script to run "wsl --install"?

Last post by Patch2000 - April 24, 2024, 07:09:36 AMHi!
Is there a smooth way to include WSL2 and make sure that the user installing Docker Desktop becomes a member of the local Docker-Users group when installing Docker Desktop from software center?
I've tried adding a postscript that runs "wsl --update" but that does not seem to do the trick.

Yes, that is mostly correct.
The only amendment is that one you create the dependency in ConfigMgr, Provided you have the Publishers default to update existing ConfigMgr apps in place, we will retain that dependency going forward.
https://docs.patchmypc.com/installation-guides/configmgr/configuration-manger-apps#:~:text=This%20will%20load%20the%20options%20panel%20in%20the%20Publisher.
Here you will see "When a new application update is available" - This would need to be set as default.
