I'm dealing with a frustrating situation at my company where we have to manually update all applications since our software patch management is quite outdated. Some users have installed Google Chrome but then stop using it, which leaves their workstations flagged on vulnerability scans due to outdated Chrome versions. I'm looking for effective ways to update Chrome aside from the standard management tools. I've tried using a batch file to run the GoogleUpdate application, but that hasn't worked. Any suggestions?

It's crucial to manage user installations. Consider blocking users from installing Chrome individually and push the enterprise version instead to keep everything updated automatically.
You could try using Ninite Pro for bulk installations and updates, which might simplify the process for you.
Is Chrome available through Winget? If it is, you could potentially schedule a command like 'winget upgrade --all' to run regularly.
Have you thought about using an automatic patcher like Heimdall on your servers? And for Chrome, installing the enterprise MSI might solve the problem, especially if you can enforce updates through group policy.
Have you considered using PowerShell? Also, it might be easier to switch to the enterprise version of Chrome for your organization. Alternatively, consider a tool like PDQ for managing updates more efficiently!
