We're continually adding new functionality to Right Click Tools Patching. And to prove it, here's a list of Patching features delivered within the last year.
Publish Third-party Updates to Configuration Manager's Software Update Management: Use RCT Patching to publish updates to Configuration Manager's software update management then use ADRs to update software from our catalog of 4000+ applications alongside updates from your Microsoft WSUS catalog. To learn how, see Add a Software Update Process. Minimum version: 5.11.2509.1603
Automate Application Removal from Configuration Manager: Right Click Tools Patching supports deployments that uninstall applications from ConfigMgr. When configuring an uninstall deployment, you can also add pre- and post-uninstall actions. Minimum version: 5.11.2509.1603
Run All Deployments at Once: Queue and run all deployments, including those that are paused, by selecting the Run All Deployments option on the Deployment Processes page. Minimum version: 5.11.2509.1603
Run Pre- and Post-Install/Uninstall Actions: Perform custom actions before and/or after a new application version is installed or uninstalled by adding a PowerShell script or an executable command to individual or all deployment processes. For details, see Pre- and Post-Install Actions. Minimum version: 5.10.2507.1103 for install actions, 5.11.2509.1603 for uninstall actions.
Set Up Automatic Email Notifications: Use Application Manager's email templates to set up and deliver automatic success and failure notifications for deployment processes and/or individual deployment steps. For success messages, you can also create new email templates that include the specific wording and deployment process details you choose. Minimum version: 5.10.2506.1707
For instructions, see:
- Admin Notifications for Deployment Processes - MECM or Intune
- Admin Notifications for Deployments - MECM or Intune
Extend a Deployment Delay: When setting up a deployment process, you can delay an individual deployment step by up to 30 days. That's up from a previous limit of 7 days. For instructions on including or editing a deployment delay, see Add a Deployment Process. Minimum version: 5.10.2506.1707
Custom Applications Support: Add custom applications and include them in deployment processes like other AM-supported applications. See Add a Custom Application. Minimum version: 5.9.2502.2105
Multi-Environment Application Deployment: Deploy the same applications in both Configuration Manager and Intune environments. Minimum version: 5.7.2411.1105
Environment Information on Deployment Process Pages: Managing multiple deployment processes in different integrations? We've made it easier to recognize the integration targeted by each deployment process by adding environment information on the Deployment Processes and Deployment Process Details pages.
- On the Deployment Processes page, you'll see the Environment listed in the table. Hovering over the environment displays either the Site Code or the Tenant ID, depending on the integration.
- On the Deployment Process Details page, you can view the environments targeted by a specific deployment process.
Minimum version: 5.7.2411.1105
Intune Functionality Integrated into Recast Software Infrastructure
- For prerequisites, see Patching System Requirements and Recast Proxy Permissions.
- For instructions on setting up your Intune environment, see Intune Setup for Patching.
- To learn how to add an Intune environment in Patching, see Add an Environment.
- For details on deploying applications to Intune, see Add a Deployment Process.
- To configure global settings specific to Intune, see Global Deployment Process Settings and Global Deployment Settings.
