Windows Server 2008: update software through group policy

March 3, 2021 Alice AUSTIN

This is a video about how to update software through group policy. In the last video, I installed Firefox 3.0, in this video I upgrade to Firefox 3.5. I use a a Microsoft installer (MSI) package and a GPO (group policy object) in an active directory domain (requires domain controller) to do this. This operation may be performed on Server 2000, 2003, or 2008 and client operating systems of Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or 7. You may assign the program to specific users or computers so that it will be installed. You can also publish the software so that the user may decide to install the software.
