Suggestion for Feature - Ability for Offline Patch Deployments with Notification and User options.
I'm proposing to have locally cached deployment option. We have users that take their laptops home every day and even for weekend. Having ability to cache patches for installation on their machine while they are not building and give them option to when to apply them. Here is a quick scenario how that would work. User is scheduled to get patches on Monday Morning between 12am a - 10am. They take laptop home on friday and don't come back into office until 9am which only leaves 1 hour of deployment
Desktop Central Agent Query
When installing the Desktop Central agent on some of our Citrix machines, we are seeing that the agent is sat in the system tray and when scanning a window will pop up. This isn't behaviour we have seen on other machines, is there a configuration option we can apply to the agent to prevent this? Agent version is 9.2.045.W

Clean up mangeengine files on central server
On our central server the drive desktop central is installed on is only about 40 gb. We have very little on this drive besides desktop central. For the last few updates I have been struggling to cleanup space as it required me to have at least 5.88 gb free. After updating to the latest build I have 5.67 free. I have cleared all files in the patchbackup folder and cleaned up everything I could according to https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/removing-unwanted-files-from-dc-how-to.html.

SQL for Missing/Installed/Declined patches
I need to know the SQL statement needed to generate a Missing/Installed/Declined patch status for an individual computer (all computers is fine, I can easily adjust the WHERE clause once I know the proper table joins). I can filter the Vulnerable System Report to show this, but I need to include some calculated fields and there is a good chance I'll be joining this to data stored in ServiceDeskPlus.

Is there a way to disable this Quick Launch bar? Help Desk users are able to click on options like Registry Edit, command prompt, etc and they all open under the SYSTEM security context (a big no-no as these folks shouldn't have that level of access). I've disabled the "Enable Quick Launch Tray" option, but not sure if this is the same feature I'm talking about....I must be missing something here.... Running version 9.0.2.113 I've attached screen shots of the feature I'm talking about.

Folks, I was wondering if anyone knows if the "Patch Deployment Window Setting" option within the Deployment Policies takes the local Time zone of the actual workstation being updated into consideration??

Skip install if version equal to or greater than - with one conditional statement
When I deploy software, say Google Chrome, I configure the package to abort if the software is already installed. The pre-install check looks like this... It would be great if ME DC had a combined condition for "equal to or greater than" so that I don't have to write two rules for each and every package. A single rule would look like - Google Chrome & ( Version>= 54.0 ) exists Thank you
