The very meaning of the word Patch is initially positive; it is a program from a software developer that corrects any errors in an already installed program. It will patch Adobe CC App. Restart your Adobe CC App and install any app of your choice eg. Photoshop, Illustrator. But don’t run it after installation. After installing your favorite Adobe app run the patch again and click on the CC 202x button and click on the medicine icon.

Therefore, you can continue working on your enterprise's growth and focus on business activities which requires your attention. Patch Manager Plus offers seamless patching, thus making the entire patch management process simple and effective. This software patching tool provides silent installation where the latest updates which are missing in your network are installed in the background.

The feature offered by Patch Manager Plus to automate the entire patch management process is Automated Patch Deployment (APD).

  • It first starts with an automatic scan to detect the missing patches in your network.
  • All the missing patches in your network are downloaded from the vendors' site.
  • Before rolling them out into the production environment which might have critical servers, the downloaded patches are tested in a non-production environment to check the stability of these patches. These patches are tested in test machines by using the Test and Approve feature.
  • The tested patches after approval are deployed to the target machines.
  • Post deployment you can check for detailed patch reports to know the health status of your environment.
    • You can refer to Automated Patch Deployment document to know about the detailed steps involved in creating an APD task.
