12.0.2 Updated Release Notes: Remove Programs Utility (build 2155)

Release Schedule

Privilege Manager Cloud Release: September 28, 2024

Privilege Manager On-Premise Release Date: October 11, 2024

Remove Programs Utility

Affected Versions: Windows Agent Version 12.0.2153 on Windows 11 24H2

This update does not need to be applied if you do not use the Remove Programs Utility.

This update addresses an issue where our Remove Programs Utility would not load successfully on Windows 11 24H2 operating systems using Windows agent builds 12.0.2153 and older. This was fixed in Windows agent build 12.0.2155.

Additionally, due to a Microsoft limitation issue, Microsoft App store applications will not be displayed in the utility until a fix is released by Microsoft.

Windows Agent Software

Do not upgrade any Windows 11, version 23H2 or older machines to Windows 11 24H2 if they are also running Privilege Manager agent version 12.0.1096 or older. (Agent versions newer than 12.0.1096 are fine to install.) Likewise, do not install agent version 12.0.1096 or older on any computer that already has Windows 11, version 24H2 or Windows Server 2025 pre-installed on it.
If an incompatible older agent is installed on Windows 11 version 24H2 or Windows Server 2025, it will render the system unusable. Symptoms of the incompatibility include UAC failing to elevate any/all programs that require administrative rights.

There is a security issue with Windows agent versions 12.0.2142 and older. A fix for the issue is included in version 12.0.2150 of the Windows agent which is available on the Software Downloads page.

Installation Notes

  • Starting with builds 11.4.3235 & 12.0.1016, and going forward with all newer builds, there is a dependency on a PowerShell script being executed by the MSI installer package for the application control agent. The script itself is signed with our code signing certificate so it will meet the execution policy requirements for signed scripts, but if all script execution has been disabled, then it will cause the installer to fail.

  • When upgrading Privilege Manager to a newer version, Delinea recommends upgrading the Directory Services agent such that both are running on the same release version.

  • Privilege Manager exclusively supports operating systems (OS) that have not reached their official End of Support. For optimal performance and compatibility, it is recommended to utilize Privilege Manager on a supported and actively maintained OS.

    Privilege Manager version 12.0.2 and later no longer supports Windows Server 2012 R2 and older operating systems. To ensure implementation of the latest security improvements, existing installs will need to migrate to the minimum system requirements of Windows Server 2016 or newer before upgrading to version 12.0.2 and later. Workstations remain unaffected.



    Likewise, do not install agent version 12.0.1096 or older on any computer that already has Windows 11, version 24H2 or Windows Server 2025 pre-installed on it.



    If an incompatible older agent is installed on Windows 11 version 24H2 or Windows Server 2025, it will render the system unusable. Symptoms of the incompatibility include UAC failing to elevate any/all programs that require administrative rights.

  • Delinea recommends as a best practice to create system restore points prior to doing system changes such as patches.

    Delinea supports the use of software versions up to a year prior to the current version. You can find previous versions of the documentation here.
