Installed Patches - discrepancy
I have a Windows Server 2016 Datacenter VM that has the Desktop Central Agent installed and the scanning status is showing OK, but for some reason the count (results) showing on Installed Patches differs (show less) from the ones I see on the Installed Updates (Control Panel) inside the machine. How or where does the agent looks for the updates installed and why I'm seeing less updates installed than the currently installed. *Already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the agent *Also tried the PowerShell
Deploying a transformation with a patch
I'm trying to deploy windows 1903 to my encrypted laptops, but I need to include a transformation with it. Is that possible?
What does Error code 10008 mean ?
The patch database in DesktopCentral has suddenly stopped updating this week and we don't know why. We suspect it may be something to do with our proxy server. I noticed in the serverout log it has error messages referencing error code : 10008. If we could identify what this error code means then it might give us a clue as to where the fault lies.

Patch Scan timeouts only on systems with 'WinBuildVer:18362 - Windows Server version 1903'
Hi Team, I'm just setting up a new installation of DescktopCentral 10.0.430, everything works fine excluding for Patch Scans on any Windows system running 'Windows Server version 1903 Datacenter Semi-Annual Channel (core installation) Edition (x64)' or 'Windows Server version 1903 Standard Semi-Annual Channel (core installation) Edition (x64)' both being Windows Build#18362 . All systems are on the local LAN subnet. I have followed all your tips for the timeout issue, UNC, LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy, UAC,
NodeJS Updates not deployed
Hi, our environment contains 4 machines running NodeJS 10.x but DesktopCentral seems to not recognize NodeJS is installed on these systems because updates to NodeJS don't apear in missing patches view.
The latest update for Windows Defender (1.299.2640.0) - Download Success but checksum failed
Got an issue this morning with the latest update for Windows Defender (1.299.2640.0) Patch ID 400009 "Download Success but checksum failed" on workstations. Checking the patch, it says it failed to download, "Download blocked by firewall/antivirus. Enable firewall configuration or exclude antivirus to allow download", however there is a 400009-mpam-fe file in the store of 110 MB size. I've tried deleting and re-downloading but this hasn't helped. I've checked the firewall and antivirus, this is not
Shedule a reboot of Windows 10 client with a countdown popup of 24 Hours
Hi , I'm using Desktop Central to push Windows Updates to Windows 10 clients. I need to display a reboot popup to logged-in users with a countdown of 24 Hours. Users should not be able to discard reboot but can minimize the popup window. How to achieve this?
Description of Windows 10 cumulative updates
Hi, I think it would be extremely useful if the description of Windows 10 cumulative updates could include the build number, e.g. currently a patch is called "2019-08 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB4512495)" but in order to tell if this is a valid patch for a system, you need to check the build number online (https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/4512495/windows-10-update-kb4512495) and then compare the build number listed there (OS Build 14393.3181) against
Customise Office Patches
I notice while troubleshooting downloads of Office updates, that DesktopCentral will download and package Office updates using the following xml file example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><Configuration> <Add Channel="Monthly" OfficeClientEdition="64" SourcePath="D:\ManageEngine\DesktopCentral_Server\store\27250_Office365"> <Product ID="O365BusinessRetail"> <Language ID="en-us"/> <Language ID="it-it"/> <Language ID="da-dk"/> <Language ID="es-es"/> <Language ID="de-de"/> <Language
Software Deployment versus Patch Management
Does anyone know if Software Deployment configuration and Patch Management deployment would conflict with one another? What I mean is, if I set up a Default Workstations software configuration under Software Deployment based on the Dynamic Group of Windows Workstations Windows 7 through Windows 10. I have 12 default applications within the software configuration that would go on all computers. I have the pre-check installation requirement check for the existing software, example Google Chrome version 76.0.3809.87.

Windows 10 LTSB version upgrade 1607 > 1809
Hi, I have a lot of systems running Windows 10 Enterprise x64 LTSB 2016 (1607). I would like to upgrade these to Windows 10 Enterprise x64 LTSC 2019 (1809). I can do this manually by opening the LTSC 2019 iso, running setup.exe, selecting 'keep files and apps' - this will upgrade windows without touching programs or user data. I was hoping I could automate this process using desktop central - I found the instructions at https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/windows10-feature-packs.html and

Agent installation question
If you got to SoM > Computers. If you select any number of computers and attempt to Install Agent, will this attempt to install the agent from the Desktop Central server or the remote site server if that computer(s) belong to a remote site? We seem to be having a possible issue with patches not making it to the computers and it seems the agents are not functioning correctly on a couple machines. So I was wondering if attempting to reinstall the agent this way would point the computer back to the
Never received a response, issue still happen 3 months later
I posted this over 3 months ago and it's still marked as "Working On It." https://pitstop.manageengine.com/portal/community/topic/superseded-patches-still-listed-as-missing-after-desktop-central-upgrade We've been having difficulties with different aspects of this software recently. Now that those seemed to have been fixed, I need to get back to this. Right now, I have 30 patches that have been superseded going all the way back to April 2019 that are listed as missing patches. This is causing some
Microsoft Updates and Desktop Central Patch Scan
Hello everyone, I am struggling to understand why I have a bunch of systems that Desktop Central Indicates no patches needed but when you check for updates manually using Windows Check for Updates, a number of updates are required and getting installed. Has anyone experienced this issue and any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. V/R Junior
Patch reboot require value incorrect
Hi, Some patches I've seen (e.g. 2019-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1809 for x64-based Systems (KB4505658) ) have the "Reboot required" value as "No" -- but this is incorrect, and after it's deployed it has a status of 'The requested operation is complete. Changes will not be applied until after the system is rebooted'. Is it possible for me to manually change the reboot required value for these patches, so that the reboot request prompt is shown to the user? Thanks!
Run script before patch is updated
We have recently installed some software requiring us to stop some services on a computer prior to updating Java. My question is is there a way to run a script before deploying a Java patch using Automated Patch Deployment? Thanks
Best way to deploy feature updates on systems with Windows 10 Enterprise E3 in CSP / no access to Ent ISO in VLSC ???
Hi, we got "Windows 10 Enterprise E3 in CSP" of the azure cloud of our parent company. Because "Windows 10 Enterprise E3 in CSP" is licensed by user we don't have access to the VLSC from Microsoft to get an Enterprise iso image. And I don't know if it is a good solution to use an ent iso on the workstation. Because if we don't use the use license anymore the system will switched back to pro version automatically. Since all our Windows 10 Pro workstations switched now automatically to the Windows
Linux Issues
I'm trying to gauge if other community members that use Desktop Central/Patch Manager Plus are experiencing issues with patching Linux systems? My experience of late is inconsistent scanning/reporting of required number of security patches and dependencies failing to download. (Note to support, I have cases logged, this is a question to the community).
The system cannot find the specified file
Hi, I sent security updates but I always have the same error in the machines: "The system cannot find the specified file". I don´t know if the issue is by the computer or something in the Desktop Central console. Any ideas what I have to do to fix this? Thank you for your help.
Windows 10 1903 Update
1903 is out and is showing as a patch in Desktop Central. Is it the same procedure as 1809? Upload ISO with specific filename and use configuration to push it out? I was never able to get it to work as a regular patch.
Automatic patching when system connects
We have users who VPN into our network/domain, is there a way to that DC can be configured to automatically scan and patch when it sees a system/user VPN'd in to the domain?
Windows Server 2016 updates reappeared from May and June
Got another patch resurfaced: 26587 MS19-MAY8 2019-05 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 4.8 on Windows Server 2016 for x64 (KB4495610) And also these: 26864 MS19-JUN3 2019-06 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 for x64-based Systems (KB4503267) 107068 MSWU-3295 2019-06 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 for x64-based Systems (KB4503294) Which maybe related to this one, which did need installing according to Windows (but not DesktopCentral): 2019-06 Cumulative Update for Windows
What's the difference between deployment policy timing and automated task timing?
I don't fully understand the difference between an automated task and the deployment policy as for what the timings means in both. One can specify days and hours when the task or policy should trigger its activity. Let's say I want to schedule updates on Monday and Tuesday (Patch Tuesday occurred and next Monday these updates will be installed after having been approved) between 12h30 and 15h30, trigger a notification when they are going to be installed on the user's device and ask them for a reboot
Option to auto-close apps that require update AND/OR notify users to save work then quit apps that require updates
I think this shouldn't be too hard to do. Better than seeing "Patch update delayed since application is used by another process" errors https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/patch-update-delayed-since-application-is-used-by-another-process.html?dci&did=45-1224-2016-05-11-20-21-27-2695 it should be alot like the "Notification Message before Reboot*" but instead "Notification Message before closing vulnerable applications* This would apply for apps such as office 365. which require
Automaticly decline MS preview updates
Hello, is there a way to automaticly decline MS preview updates? Background is that I want to deploy optional updates as well but I don't want to deploy updates labled as "preview" to production machines.
Reapply patches after reimage.
If you deploy patches to a machine using an APD task and they install successfully and then that machine is reimaged and the base image is missing those patches, are the patches reinstalled by the APD Task?
custom report for specific patch
I was wonder how could I either make a custom report or query to show all computer with a specific patch id. I am deploying the windows 10 feature patch as part of my APD but currently the only way I can see what pc are missing the patch and what have it installed is going to patches and then applicable patches and search the patch ID if I want to refresh the data that means i would have to each time search the patch id. I was wondering if I could make some report that all i would have to do is
Two Critical patches from 2012 suddenly required
Following overnight Vulnerability DB sync, two 'Critical' patches from 2012 have been flagged as being required; 11538 and 12648. Genuine or a false report?
Old MS Patch
A couple of questions - 1. This morning I had the patch "Microsoft ASP.NET MVC Security Update MS14-059 (KB2993939)" from 2014 show up as needed on 80+ machines (Windows 7,10,2008R2, 2012R2, and 2016). I have not found any info about the patch being re-issued. It seems strange. Has anyone else had it show up? 2. I have a dozen or so MS patches that are superseded but are still showing up under Missing Patches. Is this normal? Thanks in advance for any replies.
No information on error: dc.db.agent.config.common.downloadxml failed
Is there any documentation on what this error means? I have a handful of machines with this stuck in a Retry in Progress loop. Google searches and searches here aren't returning anything.
Defer windows updates
Hi, I have seen the option to install updates 3 weeks after Patch Tuesday on our "Desktop Central" panel. Could we defer updates for an specific Custom Group or OU for a longer period of time? Windows 10 allows to activate "Semi-Annual Channel" in advanced settings, but we have disabled windows updates as Desktop Central is working fine I would like to wait some months before updating in few computers. It is a recomendation we have received from "Siemens PLM Software". Thanks.
Mozilla Firefox updates require reboot?
Do Mozilla Firefox updates really require a reboot of Windows? Is there a reason, because it seems excessive to me, already get reboots required for Window updates.
Very Slow deployment to Branch DS servers
When I was attempting to deploy a Application to my Branch PC's the replication was very slow and most of the time replication was not working at all. is there a fix for this besides setting bandwidth utilization to unlimited? right now I have bandwidth set to 4mbps.
