Home Updater: General Discussions, Questions and Updates / Re: Size Column

Last post by markburkett - February 23, 2026, 12:59:49 AM

Could we have a size column for the apps pages?

It'd be very useful to know how big the installer is, before we download/install it.

As maybe we don't realise that Adobe Reader is 468MB, vs. the alternative of SumatraPDF being only 8.2MB !!!  Or that DaVinci Resolve is 2.47GB !!!

Not all apps are cute little apps like the 2MB 7-Zip. So we might want to delay downloading big apps until later, or using WiFi instead of mobile date, etc. etc.

You are right

Commercial/Paid Products: Support and General Questions (ConfigMgr and Intune) / Moving to the Cloud

Last post by PaleFacedGinger - February 20, 2026, 06:26:00 AM

As the inexorable march to the cloud continues we are shortly to start using Autopilot with Entra joined devices in our live environment. As much as I will dig my claws in and attempt to hold on to SCCM I fear it's demise is not too far away. We currently have the PMPC Publishing Service installed on our SCCM Management Point with Intune pushing out the software updates. In a post SCCM world, where does the PMPC Publishing Service live? Thank you.

Hi,

I'm experiencing the same issue since the update to new version of PatchMyPC, didn't have this issue on older versions. I suspect it may be related to the fact I have a bit of software that autohides my desktop icons after 5 seconds of inactivity - the software is DesktopOK but I tried a different one AutoHideIcons and same result.

The Notepad++ team indicated on 2/5 that the MSI allows to disable the AutoUpdater using:  msiexec /i npp.8.9.1.Installer.x64.msi NOUPDATER=1

https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/clarification-security-incident/

When I look in the Patch My PC publisher, I see installs for the EXE version but none for the MSI version. Because of this, I have been pushing out the EXE version and not using the MSI version (since it shows ZERO installations). 

Should we switch from the EXE update to the MSI update? Will it apply? Can the AutoUpdater be disabled using the EXE version?

NOTE: I'm using the Publisher and publishing updates to both ConfigMgr and to Intune.

There's a switch available for the exe installer (/noUpdater). I just tested this by customizing the exe package in PMPC Publisher and it worked. I see that PMPC also has a MSI installer available now, but this is easier than moving 30+ deployments over
