wrong, they are installed. I don't know if you now, but they changed the name from "Microsoft visual C++ 2015-2022" to "microsoft Visual C++ V14" from version 14.50.35710 on

Well, that just means it is not installed :)

Not resolved quite yet. There are multiple possible solutions, deployment to specific groups instead of All Users/All Devices (no specific plans here at the moment), and using native detection rules instead of script detection. We are working on the backend to support native detection rules, once those backend changes are made, we can then focus on adding native detection rules for our apps, the tough part is going to make them as accurate as our script detection rules, as the native rules in Intune are not nearly as flexible as a PowerShell script. I'm really bad at timelines overall, so I would just say to look for that improvements sometime in 2026.

I tried search, and found nothing. If I missed it, 100% my bad :)

From here:

"Hey, I've just spotted this (along with other Patch My PC colleagues) and would like to say that we are exploring workarounds to provide a reduced client overhead for large app assignment numbers like the numbers you mentioned.

There are members of the team right now trying a few creative solutions, and although we can't give you a timeframe, we do take this feedback at a high priority."

Has anything happened with this? I am mildly playing Devil's Advocate here, as we're primarily a ConfigMgr shop, but as we go down the path of 'moving to the cloud, powered by the cloud' and stuff, this thread caught my attention. as it is now, we use SUGs (in ConfigMgr; props to David James, I love you so much I have a photo of you on my wall), and it works great, since SUGs were designed logically and with love; we see no silliness.

but, if we take that same SUG and lol-it into Intune, with 700 patches... well... I get scared.

So, is this an active issue? Was it fixed? Make your script faster? etc etc? Building an Agent, calling it CCMEXEC2.exe? A man can dream.

How about now? It should be fixed.

When I click the Outdated buttons, the update download starts but stops after 1 second.

I'm sorry.
I just found the place to disable this.
One would expect this to be under the settings tab, but it's under the "Schedular" tab.

"Schedule to Check and Notify for Outdated Applications" which is done every 2,5 hours and this must have been automatically enabled because I for sure did not.

I now disabled this check and hope the notifications are gone after that.

A notification system is not a bad thing, but it causes issues when displaying above anything which is running at the moment, even work, forums or games. So maybe as suggestion it can be programmed to not pop over everything?

Quote from: Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC) on July 03, 2025, 09:35:40 AMOn the notification popup you saw, I'm not sure what that might be. Patch My PC Home Updater shouldn't trigger any native Windows notifications, especially when running as a scheduled task silently. If you're able to grab a screenshot or note the exact message, we'd love to dig deeper.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I'm having the same issue and it's very very annoying.
I don't have any scheduled tasks. I just have installed Patch My PC at least 7 years ago (also installed on my new pc in 2022) and updated it regularly.

But since a short time (maybe last update) I also get a popup which says that there are X programs which can be updated. This is very disturbing as it also gets visible for example during some games and also when typing on a forum like this, suddenly the popup is there again, notifying that there are programs which need updating.

As I'm sure this is fine for some people, I personally don't like being disturbed by these update notices during my work or gameplay. I check regularly myself if there are application updates which can be done.

In the settings, really -every- setting is turned off, except the setting to automically close the application being updated to avoid files being in use.

I very much like Patch My PC, but I don't know why or since when this notification Windows was build in and I'm looking for a way to disable this.
