Commercial/Paid Products: Support and General Questions (ConfigMgr and Intune) / Re: Adobe Acrobat Reader updat...
Last post by Priscilla (Patch My PC) - June 15, 2026, 10:59:34 AMHi sw-deploy,
Thanks for reaching out about the Adobe update failures with error 0x80240017. What we are seeing here is related to an issue on Adobe's side with how their MSP updates report applicability. Even when the update is actually applicable, the Windows Update Agent or Configuration Manager can incorrectly determine that it is not, which results in the failure you are seeing.
Recommended Resolution
To work around this:
Enable Manage Client-Side Logging for the Adobe update
- https://patchmypc.com/kb/right-click-options-available-updates/#h-manage-installation-logging
Republish the update after enabling this option
- https://patchmypc.com/kb/when-how-republish-patch-my/
Deploy the newly republished update
When logging is enabled, our publishing process includes a ScriptRunner as the primary installer instead of relying directly on the MSP file. Without ScriptRunner, the Windows Update Agent or Configuration Manager evaluates the MSP directly and hits Adobe's incorrect applicability logic, which causes the failure. With ScriptRunner, the applicability check is bypassed and the installation is executed, which allows the update to install successfully on applicable devices.
If you are still experiencing issues after attempting that resolution, please open a support case with us here: https://patchmypc.com/technical-support and include the logs listed here: https://patchmypc.com/kb/collect-sccm-intune-logs/#h-third-party-software-updates-failing-to-install-on-client-devices
Thanks!

Commercial/Paid Products: Support and General Questions (ConfigMgr and Intune) / Adobe Acrobat Reader update - ...
Last post by sw-deploy - June 15, 2026, 12:40:53 AMHello guys!
Since the previous Acrobat Reader update (26.001.21529) we have the issue, that many devices cannot install the update through MEMCM.
The same issue with update 26.001.21662 now.
The weird thing is, when I start the update manually, it works without any error.
Currently we have around 1000 devices with this issue.
Any idea what this could cause the problem?
Thanks

Home Updater: General Discussions, Questions and Updates / Re: CPUID Compromised
Last post by violetbeth - June 09, 2026, 09:18:58 PMQuote from: matt84 on April 10, 2026, 10:07:34 PMPatch my PC Home Updater updated CPU-Z and HWMonitor recently. Did Patch My PC download the compromised installers?Check the exact CPU-Z and HWMonitor versions that Patch My PC installed. If they were downloaded during the compromise window, compare their hashes with the malicious hashes from the advisory. The update date is the key factor.

Commercial/Paid Products: Support and General Questions (ConfigMgr and Intune) / Re: Autodesk Revit 2025 Update...
Last post by Andrew Jimenez (Patch My PC) - June 09, 2026, 11:51:30 AMUnfortunately, the Revit 2025 updates are larger than 2GB. 3rd party WSUS updates have a maximum size of 2GB, as they are stored in a CAB file and the maximum size of a CAB file is 2GB. Due to this size limitation, we are unable to add Revit 2025 to our catalog and will likely be unable to ever add them (to WSUS) due to that file size restriction within WSUS.

Last post by iamr00t - June 09, 2026, 11:40:00 AMWe are planning to upgrade from Revit 2024 to 2025, and I noticed that there is no Revit 2025 update in Publisher. Autodesk support (https://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2025/ENU/?guid=RevitReleaseNotes_2025updates_html) shows 9 updates since the release. I see most of the Autodesk products have the normal progression of years, so not sure why this is missing 2025. Is this just as simple that I need to submit a product request?

Home Updater: Report Detection Issues or Installation Issues / Re: Remove desktop shortcuts f...
Last post by violetbeth - June 08, 2026, 09:34:20 PMI can confirm seeing this behavior with some applications as well. It might be worth mentioning which apps leave shortcuts behind, as the result could depend on how the installer creates the desktop icon.

Home Updater: General Support and Troubleshooting / Re: Behaviour change
Last post by Ferrari328 - June 01, 2026, 03:07:31 PMThanks, but as I said in my original post, the hourly checks are disabled. Despite that, it adds a task to do exactly this every 2 hours.

Last post by Justin Chalfant (Patch My PC) - June 01, 2026, 02:37:12 PMQuote from: Ferrari328 on May 22, 2026, 11:24:06 AMI have been using this app for a long time, but now it has changed. I have set it to scan weekly on Mondays at 7:30AM. And have disabled the hourly checks. Despite that, I get a pop-up saying there is a new update available for a program. I only want it to run on Mondays, and I don't want to see any pop-ups. How do I get the old behavior back? Windows 10 on a PC.
Hey there,
You would just want to disable this top option under the Scheduler:

Home Updater: General Support and Troubleshooting / Can't update after doing a res...
Last post by Black Tiger - May 31, 2026, 06:35:50 AMSeems this is a bug and can be reproduced.
1.) Open Patch my PC and see which program's can be updated. I normally have like around 6 to 7.
2.) I like to update some, like Chrome and Thunderbird via the application itself. So while PMPC is open, I open Chrome, update it, then Thunderbird same way and maybe another program.
3.) After that is done I use the "rescan" option in PMPC and the updated programs are not shown as outdated anymore. Now I click to select the remaining applications which should be updated.
4.) After doing that, the update butten is blanked out, I can only click to uninstall the selected applications. This is odd because some version I always worked like that and there was no issue.
5.) When you close PMPC and then open it again and then click to select the outdated apps, then I can select to update the selected apps.
Conclusion, something is preventing to update apps one select after doing a rescan where some apps are updated externally.

Home Updater: Report Detection Issues or Installation Issues / Re: Update of Visual Studio Co...
Last post by dking02 - May 29, 2026, 08:03:27 PMVSCode release 1.22.0 has been replaced by 1.22.1 and PMPC is now successfully installing or updating VSCode to 1.122.1. VSCode 1.122.1 is a bugfix for two issues with the original 1.22.0 release.
The official VSCode download site (link and screenshot below) provides downloads for Windows, Linux, and macOS but inconveniently does not clearly indicate the version that is currently available. The latest version and related changes/issues are documented in the release notes which are accessible from the "Updates" link at the top of the download page.
