I was under the impression that wpgk.js /synchronize would add all matching Packages to wpkg.xml as well? Is that not the case? One other way to get a package into wpkg.xml is by running wpkg.js /install on the package. If the package is already installed unmanaged, wpkg will add it to wpkg.xml and make it managed. In any case, I am actually taking advantage of this wpkg behavior; I am using it to also uninstall unwanted software (which WPKG obviously has never installed in the first place) such as toolbars. In any case, I just realized that I am also using /force. Maybe that is why I see the behavior? Going a bit off topic but tying into a question I had a few days ago: is there a way to set /force on a per-package or per-profile basis? It would be extremely handy if I could use wpkg to remove bloatware from a new computer and at the same time leave preinstalled copies of, say, Microsoft Office, intact. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
