Application "reneved" licence deployment

Question
-
Hi Team,
I have the latest version of application installed on Windows 10 machines, The licence got expired and after renewing the same it comes with a different licence key.
When we try to push the latest application package SCCM cannot installed as it already found the latest version is installed and do not take any action.
Can you please suggest how to push a .msi package on all the Windows 10 machines with the renewed application licence information without uninstalling and installing the application again.

If you are using the application model then all you need to do is make the new application detection rule unique. You could have the new application also add a reg key and add this aswell as the msi product code as the detection rule, then set to supercede the old app with uninstall enabled.
Another option would be to create a package instead and use a bat file for install
first line of the bat would be
MSIEXEC /X GUID /QN
then your install MSIEXEC /i MSI /QN

Hi Richard,
'
Thanks a lot for replying to my query, can we amend the current application package (or create a new one) and use "msiexec /f" command to repair the package. Will it work?
The idea is to get the new licence information installed in the same application version.

You could run a repair yes, or you can uninstall \ install via the same bat file. Both will get you the same result.

Hi,
Application management in Configuration Manager lets you upgrade or replace existing applications by using a supersedence relationship. When you supersede an application, you can specify a new deployment type to replace the deployment type of the superseded application and also decide whether to upgrade or uninstall the superseded application before the superseding application is installed. For more details, see:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/apps/deploy-use/revise-and-supersede-applications
