Remove prompt for UAC when opening Patch My PC Publisher
The Publisher's UI prompts for UAC because Settings.xml is needed for read/write in Program Files. Moving this to another location eg ProgramData would enable teams without local administrator rights on servers to manage our software.
Support for non-installable (portable / standalone) software
At this time Patch My PC can generally only support software that's "installable". In other words, come with an installer in form of .exe/.msi where the installer places the software in consistent and predictable locations on disk and registry dat...

Exclude vendor from auto-publishing - point-in-time vs going-forward
Currently if you choose to exclude a vendor from auto-publishing rules, it is a point-in-time operation, ie only affecting the products supported at that time by PMPC. If PMPC subsequently adds support for new products from that vendor, those prod...
