Skip downloading patches for computers excluded in the APD
I was wondering if there was a way to not download patches for computer in the APD that are marked as excluded. I have our APD set to exclude our servers since we don't want them patching. But I noticed that in the downloaded patches we have it set to remove patches after 3 months and not missing option. That works fine except that it has downloaded patches from 10 months ago since we don't patch servers they got scanned upon initial agent installation but have not been patched. Thus it downloaded

ManageEngine Desktop Central now supports 'Rollups'
Hi Folks, Greetings from ManageEngine Desktop Central Technical Support. Its my immense pleasure to announce the support for 'Rollups' in Desktop Central patch management. I trust you must be aware about Microsoft's October Patch Tuesday, what has started supporting Rollup updates (B Week updates). These are nothing but a single bulky update which includes all. Now its Desktop Central's turn to support these updates. Support is provided as a specific patch type named 'Rollups' under the APD.

Issue with two technicians connecting to the same remote connection
Previously, this feature worked great. It appears after the last DesktopCentral patch (we are running build 10.0.56) was installed, we cannot connect to the same desktop at the same time. When you click on "View Desktop" it asks for a confirmation to connect (since a user is already on the desktop). When you click YES the button changes to "Loading" and never finishes the connection. Only refreshing the browser page clears that up and permits connection to a non-shared desktop.

Deploying Configurations - Concurrent push count
Good morning, When deploying a configuration to a large number of computers, how many machines will it actually process at one time? Say I'm targeting 1500 machines... will it push to groups of 10, 25, 40 at once? I know I've seen this answer somewhere before, but I am unable to find it now. Thank you, J.W.
Recently installed software report
Is there a way to run the report so that it only lists each individual software package once with a summary column of how many computers the software was installed on? Currently, the report has one line per computer per package. Its easy to miss undesirable software that was installed on just one computer because it gets lost in all the noise from all the other installs. For example, "today's" report has 49 lines for me but there were actually only 5 or 6 different packages installed.

Software Deployment - Access Denied for one of the package
We are trying to deploy a couple of .exe files to around 30 workstations. For around 3 workstations, one of the .exe files would fail with the error "Access Denied". No matter how many times we retry, that specific package will always fail with "Access Denied". The same package can deploy to the rest of the workstations without a problem. And that package had also been deployed to the failed workstations before successfully. But upon redeployment they have a high chance to fail with that error. At

Windows 10 and Boot Time
Hi, I do have a problem with Windows 10 and the boot sequence. Roling out software or patches "at boot time" does not work for days. I think it has something to do with the new quick startup features of windows 10. If I take a look at the overview of all systems many of them show a "last boot time" of days ago - and I know they are shut down every evening. If some Microsoft patches require a reboot, the boot time is shown right and the patches delivered "at boot time" get applied. The problem is,

Scope of Management - AD Sync Settings
Within the SoM Policy I have configured the AD Sync settings to synchronize specific OUs within our domain. I recently modified this and remove a particular OU that contains disabled computer accounts.

Why isn't Desktop Central's updating/synchronizing correctly with AD? I can't believe I'd have to
