Spotify and Google Earth and I'm sure many others are a real pain in the backside as they "hide" in users appdata - also means the users can install without admin rights which is a nightmare for IT guys. The way I get around it is to use the Software Inventory Client Settings, then add spotify.exe (or any other prog.exe) to the inventory collection. Then once the inventories come flying into the SCCM database, query that data then create SSRS, Power BI or collections based on it. This is the query I use for the Spotify installations: SELECT DISTINCT COMP.UserName0 AS [User], COMP.Manufacturer0 AS [Make], COMP.Model0 AS [Model], COMP.Name0 AS [Computer], SYS.SystemType0 AS [Architecture], SWI.ModifiedDate AS [Install Date], SWF.FileName AS [Filename], SWF.FileDescription AS [Product], SWF.FileVersion AS [Version] FROM v_GS_SYSTEM SYS INNER JOIN SoftwareInventory SWI on SYS.ResourceID = SWI.ClientId INNER JOIN SoftwareFile SWF on SWF.ProductId = SWI.ProductId INNER JOIN v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM COMP on SYS.ResourceID = COMP.ResourceID WHERE SWF.FileName = 'spotify.exe' I put these into Power BI and then add scheduled reports to my business managers that want such information - all automated and delivered by email and I look like a decent employee for a few minutes! I've written a full guide on all of this here if you want to take a look.

Dell Client Integration Pack Version 3.1
itguru1982 replied to nhottinger's topic in Configuration Manager 2012
Not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for but might be worth a look, a guide on Dell Warranty Reporting we did a while ago, provides details on how to create the report as well...hope it helps. Report on Dell Warranty Statuses Using SCCM and Dell Integration -
Having said that, I just saw this (excuse me I'm reading this on an iPad!) Failed to resolve PackageID=RBC00002] Might be worth checking your task sequence dependencies are fully and correctly deployed. Use CMTrace to look for further errors in your log files.

Fairly sure this will be because you need to add the NIC for the machine you are deploying to, to the boot image, then redeploy the boot image and try again.

Setting computername during deployment
itguru1982 replied to anyweb's question in Troubleshooting, Tools, Hints and Tips
This process will do exactly what you are trying to do (I use this process every single day without any problems) and tells you where to put it in your task sequence - however, it does use MDT so if you do not have this integrated this will not help: Set Company Name Automatically During OSD -
Setting computername during deployment
itguru1982 replied to anyweb's question in Troubleshooting, Tools, Hints and Tips
Hi - I think you would maybe need to use Orchestrator to do something like this? -
I'm assuming you are using SCCM 2012? (SP1?) The above looks more like a SCCM 2007 script, the tables have changed slightly in 2012 so the script will not work. I've put together something that should work for you here: http://itguru82-sccm.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/last-logon-time-report-using-sccm-data.html Hope this helps...
