(_sysPath, "WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe")
Is there a way to change that?

We have some issues with SSMS 21 / 22 behind Proxy.
With pwsh can we run the installert behind the proxy, with the Windows PowerShell the installer is not able to get Proxy settings.

Thanks for getting back to us. You DPI is pretty high for that resolution, we are doing some testing on our end. Curious if the list view looks better for you than the grid icon view?

The App doesn't fit the full screen. Instead, it's bigger than the actual laptop screen, which means I can't see the X button on the top right. I have to physically move the window to be able to see the X. To clarify, my app is fullscreen, but it's appearing bigger than fullscreen - see img.

Would you be able to provide us the current resolution and DPI of your machine?

@Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC)

Sure thing.

Resolution: 1920 x 1200
DPI: 168

@niclas2874 The only NVIDIA app we offer in our catalog is called "NVIDIA GeForce Experience". Are you sure the one you are referring to isn't a custom app? If it is, you'll need to troubleshoot this yourself. For some initial troubleshooting steps, please visit:

Mine seems to do it with every app. I tried turning off icon hiding but it made no difference, I also completely removed PatchMyPC and deleted program files, app data etc folders and reinstalled but still same doesn't delete desktop icons it creates.
As a workaround I was wondering what windows account it's using and maybe I can block that users desktop write access?

Last post by Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC) - March 01, 2026, 04:57:49 PM

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"Schedule to Check and Notify for Outdated Applications" which is done every 2,5 hours and this must have been automatically enabled because I for sure did not.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

You are right. The notification comes from the "Schedule to Check and Notify for Outdated Applications" option under the Scheduler tab. If that is enabled, it will show a Windows toast style notification when updates are available. Turning that off should stop the popups.

Appreciate the feedback on how it behaves. It is intended to act like a standard Windows toast notification, not something that disrupts games or work. If it is popping over full screen apps, that is not the experience we want.

We will look into the notification behavior and see how we can make it less intrusive.

We should have 16.2 showing up as the latest for Home Updater. Let me know if you still see it not updating.

Home Updater: Report Detection Issues or Installation Issues / Re: MultiCommander detection i...

Last post by Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC) - March 01, 2026, 04:50:35 PM

Hello, I've been using the Patch My PC for a over a year now and ever since I've used this, I've had an issue with MultiCommander where if you use the internal MultiCommander updater, the Patch My PC does not recognize the latest version.  I even tested this on a brand new setup with an MC install and when the update occurred Patch did not see the new version.

I'm not sure where the MultiCommander is reading the version info, but both the MC about page along with the MultiCommander.exe file property is updated with the newest version.  The only area I found the old version being referenced was in the MC Uninstall registry key.

Are detection is based on the add and remove programs data primarily for Home Updater. I'd recommend reaching out to MultiCommander. If they are only replacing a file in their updater and not updating what's listed in add and remove programs, that's not ideal and would likely be something they should address in their self updater.
