Download updates to the network location
About this task
If you have chosen to store the updates in a network location, you must manually download the updates to that network location before you remotely deploy the catalog using Connect and manage.
On Windows 11 24H2, Microsoft has restricted guest access, which may cause the share path workflow to not function by default. To resolve this issue, enable the following group policy setting: Computer Configuration → Administrative Templates → Network → Lanman Workstation → Enable Insecure Guest Logons = ENABLED
NOTE:Microsoft does not recommend enabling this setting due to
security concerns. Enable this setting only if required for your environment.
Steps
- Download a catalog.
- Optionally, Verify the catalog.
-
Extract the downloaded catalog file to a folder.
The following files are extracted:
- <catalog-name>.xml—the catalog definition file.
- UpdateCatalogs.Maker.exe—the executable file that reads the <catalog name>.xml file and downloads the update packages.
- README.txt—a deployment instructions file.
- Search for Command Prompt and click Run as administrator.
- Type UpdateCatalogs.Maker.exe -c <catalog_definition_file> -t <specified network location> and press Enter.
