  • Changed the VB script that is uploaded to the remote system so it will download any updates that are not already downloaded.
  • Enhanced the VB script so that it uses stdout to write status information. This can be picked up through psexec.
  • Edited Install-Patches to accept the uiHash as a parameter and it now updates the Notes field with the current line of output of the VB patch script. If not passed, the Notes field will not be updated. As a side effect, the running VB script will no longer be visible on the remote computer.
  • Edited Start-PoshPAIG.ps1 to pass uiHash to Install-Patches.

Yes, it will be once I get a little more time to review everything. It's been busy so I haven't had the time to look everything over yet.

Do you already use those added features in your environment? Is it possible to get a copy of the updated VB script and all other neccessary files?

@22harle I must confess that I use a different set of scripts in my environment. All files including the files I edited are available from my repository, which is linked at the top of this page.

I have merged all changes to Start-PoshPAIG into my branch. There should be no problems if the repository owner wants to merge.
