Closed Unassigned: -Patch Parameter for Execute-MSI [83]
Could you please implement a -Patch parameter similiar to the -Transform parameter?
I do not want to override the default switches everytime ive to specify patches.
e.g For Adobe Products its not recommended to slipstream the MSPs into the main MSI.
Regards,
Fabio
Comments: This feature has been added to v3.5

Created Release: PowerShell App Deployment Toolkit v3.5.0 (Nov 24, 2014)
We're excited to release the latest version of the PSADT. This is one of the biggest code overhauls we've done with lots of new features, improvements and bug fixes. We've also welcomed a third developer on to the team, Muhammed Mashwani.
- Added CMTrace compatible log files to Write-Log (now the default). Legacy log format still available through configuration in XML config file
- Added ability to modify HKCU registry settings for all users on a machine by loading registry hives. Added functions to support this: Invoke-HKCURegistrySettingsForAllUsers, Get-UserProfiles, ConvertTo-NTAccountOrSID. Modified functions to support this: Convert-RegistryPath, Get-RegistryKey, Set-RegistryKey, Remove-RegistryKey
- Added ability in Register-DLL / Unregister-DLL to detect bitness of DLL files and register for the correct architecture automatically
- Added ability for Test-PowerPoint to actually detect if user is presenting slideshow in fullscreen mode
- Added Get-LoggedOnUser to get session details for all local and RDP logged on users
- Added Refresh-SessionEnvironmentVariables to allow reloading of newly created environment variables for the current process
- Added new variables for Domain Membership, Process Information, Account Permissions, OS Type and Versions, PowerShell and .NET versions, TimeZone Bias
- Added TRANSFORMSSECURE=1 as default where Transform parameter is specified
- Added ability to detect active console user (user with control of the monitor, keyboard, mouse)
- Added ForceCloseAppsCountdown parameter to Show-InstallationWelcome allowing a countdown to close apps regardless of whether deferral is allowed
- Added Patch parameter to Execute-MSI to allow an MSP file to be specified on the command line with an MSI installation
- Added ability to Get-InstalledApplication to detect whether a 64-bit or 32-bit application
- Added CreateNoWindow parameter to Execute-Process
- Changed Deploy-Application.exe to new executable built in VB.NET
- Changed detection of Admin rights by looking for Admin SID on the current processes access token, previous method check for membership in the BuiltInAdministrator group

- Changed $envOSArchitecture variable so that it reported consistent value regardless of OS language
- Improved detection of change.exe failures for TerminalServerInstallMode
- Improved detection of logged in users, including users connected through RDP
- Improved error trapping and logging of messages throughout script. Modified messages for clarity and consistency.
- Improved parameter validation on all functions to simplify function logic and give standard error messages when function parameters not specified properly, also helps make clear which parameters are mandatory and which are not
- Improved Set-PinnedApplication to detect when one of the chosen actions is not available on an operating system (such as pinning items to Start Menu on Windows 8)
- Improved session 0 detection
- Improved Execute-MSI and Execute-Process to sync parameter names for -Path and -Parameters and add alias for backwards compatibility
- Improved method of detecting OS architecture so that detection works on some non-English operatings systems

New Post: Show-InstallationWelcome CloseApps is failing
It looks like line 4671 failed to find any .exe files in the directory where notes is supposed to be installed. Because $notesPathExes is $null, the Compare-Object command fails on next line. If there truly are no .exe files in that directory, then we would have to add a check that says to only process line 4673 and 4674 if $notesPatheExes is not null by adding conditional: If ($notesPatheExes) { LINE 4673, 4674 }

New Post: How To - Converting Commands
You haven't provided too much information. The function you need is Execute-MSI in the toolkit. Use this function to install your MSI. The function parameters are well documented so that you know what information to specify for each parameter. If you are having problems with the parameters, then show us what you are specifying for each parameter and then we can try and help.

New Post: How To - Converting Commands
Thanks for the reply, I have already sorted this out and fixed the issues. there was a couple items that needed changed and the parameters needed to be closed. I did go through all the documentation but it did not really go through what I was having issues with.
essentially I was looking for input on what I was missing in the above Execute-MSI command. running the command with msiexec.exe worked without issues but the execute-msi would not work. below is a snip of the final command that worked...
Execute-MSI -Action Install -Path "ClientSetup.msi" -parameters "/qn ADDLOCAL=ImageNowClient,Pixtran,Accusoft,SystemFiles,LeadTools,OneDirectory,ImageNowPrinter IN_PROFILENAME=DefaultProfile IN_SERVER_NAME=image.server.ca IN_PORT_NO=6000 STARTMENUICON=Yes DESKTOPICON=Yes QUICKLAUNCHICON=Yes REMOVEOLDVERSIONS=Yes"
Again thanks for the reply back, much appreciated.

I'm testing with blocking "iexplore" right now on a Windows 8 x64 system and it is blocking and unblocking properly for me each time. I am running the deploy script directly from an elevated command prompt. Can you share some more details about your system and how you are executing the script?

Actually, if you want to test with the same script I am running, it is the Testing script under the "Testing" folder of the toolkit download.
