If it’s the only way to get right-click install to work, how could MS NOT 
support it?

Yep, just to reinforce, this is explicitly unsupported and there are known 
side-effects from doing this. Many folks do it successfully, but given that 
it’s explicitly unsupported, I would highly recommend you not do it this way.

Just be aware that patching that way is unsupported by MS. Its a holdover from 
SMS2003 days.

Ok, I got this figured out and working.  Like I said, updating our SCCM server 
falls under one of our admins duties.  But as I got to digging, there appeared 
to be a CU msp path in the folder structure of my client install files.  Inside 
the folder with ccmsetup.exe, there is the i386 and x64 folders.  In each of 
those is a folder labeled ClientPatch, and within that, the msp update for the 
CU.  For whatever reason, we had the current ccmsetup.exe version, but that 
ClientPatch folder had CU2.  I replaced it with CU3 
(configmgr2012ac-r2-kb2994331-x64.msp), redistributed the package, and now my 
right-click properly installs the current CU3 version.
