Script to Edit SCCM Program Setting Under Requirement Tab ConfigMgr

Script to Edit SCCM Program Setting Under Requirement Tab ConfigMgr. I have seen the people requesting the script to change This program can run only on specified client platforms option in the program properties.

In this scenario, we are looking to migrate all the machines to Windows 7 and all the packages already created with the requirement to install them on the XP environment platform only.

We can edit the program setting under the requirement tab to make it possible to run on Windows 7, but there are ways to automate it.

In this blog post, we will learn about Script to Edit SCCM Program Setting Under Requirement Tab ConfigMgr.

  Next
End Sub

P.S – Test the script in the LAB environment before applying it on PRODUCTION.
