Disregard the post regarding the error message in the log file. The scheduled task was supposed to run tonight at 7 pm, but according to log it doesn't look as though it ran at all.

Looking at what occurred at 7 pm, this is what I found, albeit it kicked off a little before 7 pm.

Nevertheless, there were three apps that were outdated, but neither were silently updated.

Looking through the log file, I came across the following error which indicates that an app didn't update per the scheduled task, but I have no idea how to resolve it.

Home Updater: General Support and Troubleshooting / Silent Install

Last post by tennisace57 - April 23, 2025, 07:38:35 AM

I installed the latest version of PatchMyPC a few weeks ago, with the default settings.

After several weeks now, none of the listed apps are silently updated per the daily scheduled settings. If I launch PatchMyPC, there are apps listed as "outdated" and I have to manually update them by clicking "Start" or "Update."

Do I need to change a setting somewhere under "Settings" to get my apps to update silently (automatically) per the daily scheduled settings.

Hello,
I'm utilizing Java and Python for our development efforts. The R&D department has some basic configurations to complete and must adhere to specific instructions, which I would like to bypass during the installation process.

Is it possible to set a custom installation folder for applications?

What is the most effective way to customize environment variables?

Hi Justin, Thank you! I downloaded the replacement program and it opened perfectly after loading my programs. I completed a scan and updated 2 programs, worked great. I then re-scanned, it came up complete and I closed the program. I then restarted my laptop and opened the program again with no problems. I scanned my programs and it came up as no updates needed. I then closed the program. I am attaching the log file below. If this is all you need, you can close the subject as completed.
Again thank you very much for all your time and efforts, I am very happy to have a working version of PatchMyPC again!!!
