Codex (OpenAI)

Can we please have Codex (OpenAI) added to the app catalog as this would allow us to manage along with our other apps deployed here but we must have auto patching.

    We do not currently support MSIX installers. At this time, we support the deployment of apps in .EXE, .MSI, or .MSP formats only.
    Please upvote the following idea to add support for MSIX/APPX packages: https://ideas.patchmypc.com/ideas/PATCHMYPC-I-5927

    The Codex Installer.exe is essentially a bootstrapper that redirects you to the Microsoft Store to install the app. It doesn't contain the full application itself; instead, it launches the Microsoft Store where the actual Codex AI app is hosted and managed.

    The challenge is that our current detection scripts rely on an Add/Remove Programs entry, which Microsoft Store apps do not provide. Detecting Microsoft Store apps requires running a specific PowerShell command, and we don't support that yet—though it is on our roadmap.

    Would be a huge help having this in the catalog.
