Deploying a batch file only once?

[mrb-solutions]

Hello,

 

I am having trouble trying to install clicker 6. I would normally use the MSI but i need to change some options which i have done and tested via a batch file but i need to deploy via GP somehow and let it only apply once?

 

I have tried to do it by task schedule but it picks up the task and says it runs and completes but then for some reason doesn't install the software?

 

Any other ideas would be great otherwise I will have to pop round to everyone's Laptops to upgrade which would be tedious.....

just add it to startup scripts but add something like this to the batch file itself

 

if exist c:\clicker6fix.txt goto end

do whatever

copy "\\server\packages$\clicker6.txt" "c:\clicker6fix.txt"

 

:end

Works a treat if i login as an admin but if i login as staff it wont install the program says doesnt have the sufficient privileges. Even though they should? MEH

 

 

"do not have sufficient access to complete this installation for all users of the machine"

 

its because of the "all users of the machine" part. Any work arounds?

I would do what @sted said. Create a startup script and add a check to it to see if a file exists. If it does ignore the install.

I did, don't worry i made it work.

 

Thanks
