    Hey PMPC crew... looks like this was last looked at a little over a year ago. With the work you have done with custom apps portal supporting multi-file installers, perhaps it's time to look at DWG TrueView again?

    Cheers!

    Given the comments of my colleague below (I'll paste again in case you missed it), at this time we can't support this app. Kindly vote or comment on this idea in order for us to support products with this installer behaviour/functionality: https://ideas.patchmypc.com/ideas/PATCHMYPC-I-1463


    DWG TrueView is still an issue with Patch My PC at the moment. There are 2 issues with this app:
    1. This app is a 2 part process, the exe must be extracted before getting the actual installers, typically, we can work around this by using the "Local Content Repo" option however....
    2. When the contents of the file are extracted, they are actually a multi-file installer, Patch My PC only supports single-file installers today, so this product is incompatible.
    We know this is a popular app, but we are limited by the technology at this time. We'll continue to look at ways around this in the future, but for now we will keep this as a no-go.

    DWG Trueview can easily be added manually as an application to ConfigMgr. Extract the file to a folder, and run "setup.exe /q" and you are good to go and use the "dwgviewer.msi" for detection.

    I'm marking this as a no-go for now. The way this software is packaged makes it very difficult to deploy via our methods at this time.

    No news yet. We'll take another look at this app this month and try to give a definitive yes or no.

    We've played with the idea of the prescript, the issue there is that it will not work for our customers on the basic license, or for customers who opt to use the native ConfgMgr 3rd Party Patching feature. We'll keep an eye on this and consider it in the future.

    Justin could extracting the files be part of the pre-install script followed by the extracted files being deleted in the post install script?

    We probably won't be able to support this. It seems the installer file needs to be manually extracted to perform a silent install https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/dwg-trueview/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How-to-run-self-extraction-of-DWG-TrueView-2019-install-package-from-Command-Line.html

    I just wanted to let you all know we haven't forgotten about this request. We are working through some others at the moment that more unique customers are following. If any others come across this idea, please vote it up if it's one you would like to see added.
