Hi!
I have winamp 5.92 installed, but pmpc is incorrectly detecting is as "v1.7" and recommending update to the same version I already have.
The problem is that pmps is detecting the file Uninstall_Winamp_Lang_Packs.exe (which is, in fact, v1.7) instead of the actual winamp executable (winamp.exe)

Hi all,

I wanted to report back we have a fix in place that will be available in the next update.

OBS Project requires Claude App to be closed, but Home Updater does not close it automatically. Please update conflicting processes rules.

Recently, I tried installing Patch My PC Home Updater v5 on Windows 8.1, but it won't install due to OS incompatibility. Is v4 the last supported version, or is there any workaround?

This got fixed with a Dell network card driver update.

Has anyone else had this problem in Win11?

Hi Doug, I checked this with Rudy. As mentioned in his blog article, the new maintenance window functionality in Intune will apply to operating system, driver, and firmware updates only. This means that, unfortunately, they don't apply to our app updates, or any other type of updates, for that matter.

I read Rudy Ooms recent article on the new Intune Maintenance Window feature with great interest.

- Maintenance-window-os-drivers-updates-intune | Blog | PatchmyPC

We are planning Entra Joined Windows 11 devices protected by Universal Write Filter (or Faronics Deepfreeze-equivalent) and need to ensure that any update activity happens within a strict maintenance/thaw window.

Intune Maintenance Windows appears to control OS, Driver and Firmware updates. Good.

- But does it control PmPc Win32App install & updates?

Or other payloads such as

- MDM Device Certificate Renewal
- IME PowerShell Scripts / Proactive Remediations
- Office and Edge Updates
- Store App updates
- etc.

Kind regards
Doug

Yes, still seeing the issue.  I re-installed and disabled the Windows firewall but no difference.

This was reported by others last year:  https://forum.patchmypc.com/index.php?topic=8804.0

Hello,

This is good feedback, we'll look into implementing an option to skip that check.
The reason it was designed this way is because our updates are usually targeted based on a specific installer type, so we designed the uninstaller to work in the same way, but having a more "relaxed" option makes sense to me!
