Patch deployment/replication speed crippling networks
I am trying to understand Desktop Centrals patching/replication speed settings. We have some smaller sites we manage that have 5, 10 or 15MB bandwidth pipes going into them. Our replication policies are set to over night at either 64KBps or 1MB. Problem we're having is even at 64KBps, pushing software or patches to a site is killing the network.

iCloud Vulnerabilities and Patches Not Lining Up?
I am seeing vulnerabilities listed when iCloud v7.x (Installer EXE) is installed. This is correct, as it is an outdated version. I install the patch and that one goes away. However, all along there is also items listed for the version 10.x (Microsoft Store) version of iCloud, which is not installed on the computers. Patching the 7.x to current only removes the 7.x vulnerability listed. Has anyone else encountered this between the two different install sources?

Some old patches as "Not approved" and no option to "Approve" them
Hi, I have noticed that after scanning our network looking for vulnerabilities, there are some KB patches that need to be applied. Looking for those patches in Desktop Central, I can see they are "Not approved" although we have "automatically approve all patches" option enabled. Also I can not select those patches to mark them as "approved". They are listed in the "Supported Patches" section, not in the "Applicable Patches" section. How can we "approve" those patches and install/download again?
