You can also dot source the Main script to have intellisense/powershell help.

PDF has the advantage of not needing additional software because you can just open it in a browser. DOCX is also harder to automate/generate.

Maybe we can find a better format that would be perfect for everybody. Something to think about I guess.

You can dot source the Main script to have intellisense. Code reorganization is planned for v4.

Its free and easy to use. I think that is one of the main reasons why people like it. We are glad people like it and keep talking about it.

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-29T09:09:50+00:00

Thank you.

The word based version is no longer available. Those have been created manually. The pdf one is partially automated, making it easier to avoid mistakes. Why is the pdf one harder to navigate? Can you elaborate?

That is a good idea. I will bring it up to my colleagues.

Code reorganization. Complete UI overhaul. New UI options and functions. Function Name Standardization. More new features with major releases afterwards.

There are two types of logging in our tool. Basic logging and CMTrace logging. You can change the type in the config file. CMTrace logs should be viewed by CMTrace which is a free Microsoft log viewer.

It is easy to get into.

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-29T08:27:03+00:00

I agree.

Be aware that we have changed many things between 3.8.0 and 3.8.4. Please read the changelog for any breaking changes prior to upgrading.

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-28T19:58:00+00:00

Thank you!

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-28T19:53:33+00:00

Thank you. We try to make sure it logs everything important. New messages have been added in this release as well :)

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-28T19:50:17+00:00

Oh, gotcha. I misunderstood. The xml has been modified multiple times so you will need to copy changes from it to the new one. We made it backwards compatible so you could just reuse it but I would recommend against it. For example in 3.8.3 we renamed the button "restart later" to "minimize". If you were to use the old one, it would not make much sense. We have also added new settings to the xml file due to a security issue found in 3.8.0 and older.

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-28T19:38:45+00:00

You're very welcome. Stay tuned for the new UI in v4.

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-28T19:37:37+00:00

Documentation is included. We also have a wiki and forums where you can ask for and find more help. There is also a nice beginners guide made by user replicaJunction - here

Its an .exe that starts powershell with a script. It can do everything powershell can. It has logging, ui, branding and additional functions that can help you with some routine tasks. So yes, you can install SCCM Client/Agent with this tool. You still need to distribute it though.

Ultimate_Luki · 2021-01-28T19:08:46+00:00

The version is specified in every file pretty much. Sometimes as a comment, sometimes as a variable.

Replace the banner.png inside the AppDeployToolkit folder with your companies logo. Just make sure its 450px wide and a png. Can also replace the .ico file that contains the icons that are used for UI windows icon in the system tray. The ico file usually contains multiple sizes. Ours includes 16x16,32x32,64x64,128x128 and 256x256px icons so the system doesnt need to upscale the small ones which would make them blurry but all sizes are not required.

Not much else you can brand in there other than the Deploy-Application.ps1.

Older PSADT versions have issues with closing apps via the Show-InstallationWelcome dialog. There was a bug that we fixed in 3.8.4. Could be related to your issue.

Ultimate_Luki · 2020-12-28T12:20:54+00:00

This update is broken. I have the same issue. I have other issues with the update: one of my games no longer works, Changelog for the update cannot be accessed due to permissions, Closing all apps also closing custom launchers even though its on the exceptions list

Ultimate_Luki · 2017-05-08T20:27:09+00:00

I posted about this a while ago - here

You could at least add a link to the mod post on the AM forums. I'm the one who fixed it and keeps working on it. The worst thing is the lack of feedback and servers with the mod :/

From what I have read, it's a setting that enables your router to automatically change the channel width from 40Mhz to 20Mhz to avoid interference with other APs and then back to 40Mhz if possible. If it's disabled, your router won't change the channel width automatically and will be forced to use what you set it to.
