hey all, i'm trying to create a collection that is based on all workstations with internet explorer 11 installed. i've tried building a query using various parameters for "Software Updates" (ie, ID, Product, Title etc) but no results for the collection so far. is there a way to build a query that will return only workstations with IE 11? i've also tried queries that check the file name and version (ie, iexplore.exe and 11) but no results returned- although i found out that the file version is not getting inventoried? any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!

anyone?

I’m in the process of deploying IE 11 to our company and I’m running into an issue with the installation that has made the success of the deployment very hit and miss- see thread https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/085a1735-9833-49d6-9e6b-6a82d147871e/internet-explorer-11-fails-to-install for details. So I’ve been using the “fix” mentioned in this thread to install IE 11 and so far has been successful. What I want to do now, is figure out a way that I can deploy IE 11 using this fix. From what I’ve read, SCCM’s software updates option can’t be customized (ie, can’t add a batch file) and I’ve been playing with Task Sequences but haven’t had luck so far. I’ve also tried deploying IE 11 as a regular software distribution package, but reporting is not reliable (shows failure/runtime exceeded even though the installation is successful). Can anyone suggest a best approach? I would certainly use the software updates route if it wasn’t for the KB issue causing our deployment success to be so unreliable, and it seems that TS is the next best option if I can get it work for this scenario. Or does anyone know how to fix this KB issue with IE 11 installations to begin with?? Thanks!
