So why not just leave the default base variable name as COALESCEDAPPS? Or is that just a place holder? I went through the first link. I have set my variable in my customsettings and left COALESCEDAPPS as the default it is still not installing is there something I am missing? I also checked the box to allow the application to install from the task sequence.

There is a script which allows you to make this change en masse: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/mniehaus/2008/10/02/allow-this-program-to-be-installed-from-the-install-software-task-sequence-without-being-advertised/ Always test in DEV, of course :) On Mon, Mar 6, 2017 at 9:54 AM, Denzik, Josh <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: This message was sent securely by MUSC<http://www.musc.edu/> All, I am trying to use my customsettings.ini in a ConfigMgr 1610 in ConfigMgr/MDT integrated task sequence.

I am having some trouble getting this working properly.
