New Post: How to have client detect whether update is needed

Hi Sorry to Hijack this but I'm having the same issue. Loving WPP by the way, its going to save us lots of time!

So I have imported the Adobe Flash updates via the catalog and as above all works well for machines that have flash already, now for all our workstations we want to install flash where it might have been missed on initial image of the machines so I have taken the cab file from the latest update and extracted and re-imported it as a separate "Application" With all the same details except I know that I need to tell it only to install when the regkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerActiveX does not exist.

So on the 1st "already installed" rule page I just have the default MSIProductInstalled "a4488e5c-1022-432a-8066-72e1c4023310" rule

and

on the 2nd "update is installable" rule page I have tried both a combination of the default "Not" - MSIProductInstalled "a4488e5c-1022-432a-8066-72e1c4023310" with a "Not" RegKeyExists "SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerActiveX" or a Reg Sz To Version Reg Key of SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerActiveX Value=Version Comparison=Greater Than Or Eual To" leaving the Data set to 0,0,0,0

My attempts so far have not worked, would you be able to clarify the rules that I need to install this if the quoted reg key is not present please?

Looking forward to getting this going as it mean's I can use the same on other software too!

Thanks again
Mark
