Have to chuckle: #PatchMyPC Home Updater does no better with Adobe Acrobat updates than #WinGet. Only way that works: use in-app update, remember to exit app before fiiring it off. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

@awakecoding.com Are we supposed to use multi-pwsh to install #PowerShell on normal workstations?

If yes, it it supposed to do anything with existing installations?

I basically just run https://gist.github.com/sassdawe/49e08d0e4893a5c680e1c7f7e734cb23 in an admin Windows PowerShell every time there is an update to be installed on most of my machines.

But recently I started to test deploying the LTS version with #PatchMyPC

Also, is it expected for #WindowsTerminal to pick up these versions and make them a profile automatically?

Microsoft Intune does not have any built-in options for updating installed applications on Windows computers.

If you want to update applications on managed computers, you must manually create a new version of the given application and deploy it to all computers. However, this is quite a lot of manual work, and you also have to monitor the availability of new versions of installed applications, which is another lot of manual work.

Hmmm... NVIDA app got updated on Tuesday, but I'm just finding out now. Wonder why #PatchMyPC didn't tell me? #WindowsInsiders

Wow: lots of update activity today for #Windows10 and #Windows11. I'm averaging 5-7 apps on #WinGet, 1-2 on #PatchMyPC, and half my PCs are getting CUs via WU. The road goes on forever, and the party never ends. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

@EdTittel Hey Ed! I work for #PatchMyPC. I'll pass this feedback on to the team! Thanks for trying out the home updater!

Started pushing out the update from .exe- to .msi-based #PatchMyPC yesterday. I uncovered a minor annoyance. Let me tell you about it... #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.edtittel.com/blog/patchmypc-home-updater-mini-annoyance.html

With the combined power of #PatchMyPC and #Intune I now have managed apps!

When I see a fellow MVP has joined the company I'm reminded to re-run #PatchMyPC as a refresher. It still does the job! #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.edtittel.com/blog/patchmypc-still-rocks.html

One of my helpdesk guys suggested #patchmypc for 3rd party program #patching. I'm going to check it out in my homelab, but I'm not too impressed with it so far. Anyone have any experience with this?
