Title: How to select applications
Post by: Penny H on August 01, 2023, 04:31:00 AM
Hello! Could you please tell me if it is possible to select certain applications that Patch My PC will update? Or will it update all applications installed on the laptop?

Initially any application that PMPC knows will be updated.
If you do not want to update a specific application, you can select to exclude it from scanning.

Hello! Yes, you can typically select which applications Patch My PC will update. Patch My PC is a program that helps manage software updates on your computer. It usually provides you with a list of applications that have updates available, and you can choose which ones to update.

Thank you for your reply!
So it doesn't automatically accept all updates, it waits for my confirmation and then updates? Did I understand correctly?

These 2 above articles will help you on that.

Yes, you can select which applications Patch My PC will update. In the program, go to the Options or Updates section, where you will see a list of installed apps. You can check or uncheck specific applications based on what you want to update. This way, it won't update all apps, only the ones you choose.
