#VcRedist has passed 10m installs from the PowerShell Gallery.

I've also added an update to better support importing VcRedists into #Intune. Change log here: vcredist.com/changelog/ and here's some sample code to import VcRedists, configure assignment and supersedence: vcredist.com/import-vcint...
Import Redistributables into Intune - VcRedist
A PowerShell module for lifecycle management of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables.

Let’s shift gears and dive into a practical session that could save you hours of work.

Toms Knostenbergs from @masterpackager.com will walk us through “How to Become a Master Packager: Package Any Custom App for Intune with Confidence”.

#MEMSummit
Windows OS app dream.
- Install once.
- Stay up to date forever.
- No disruptions during updates.
- Even as a limited user.

Like Google Chrome update mechanism.
But available for everyone.
And implementation that takes a few minutes.

Coming soon.

We just released a minor fix release 24.9.9118:

Bugs fixed:
• Adding MST to main actions uses incorrect parameters for uninstall and repair commands.
• Custom registry detection key gets over-written when loading installer info.

I'm tired of seeing AI-generated images in blog posts. Writing a blog post is personal and unique, and the thumbnail should amplify that personality. But those thoughtless, lazy, and same-looking AI-generated pictures completely ruin the desire to open the post and dig in.
I’m curious about these apps that works only in App-V. Can you share more?
We stopped using WixToolset and built Master Packager Dev to build the MSI package from our source code.

We will focus on solving all the problems we know from packaging thousands of applications.

- Pricing (it's free if you have non-commercial app)
- Quality
- Speed
- Complexity
- Deployment
Master Packager Dev 1.1.0 is out. 🚀

Now you can build excellent quality MSI and MSIX packages from your source code and sign them with Azure Trusted Signing.

As I have said and shown for years - MSIX is not ready.
Actions from Microsoft prove that even more.

From Andreas Nick at #MADDAY:
"Microsoft announces the end of the #Appv exit at our #MADDAY. The client will remain in the operating system and the 2026 end date is off the table!"
