@OLLI_S We are not currently working on this. The current progress is with respect to improved reporting on deployment of updates and a more "interactive" UI. We are also working on a new agent, that will help with debugging certain issues that happen on a few machines.

This feature has been implemented in the Corporate Version of VulnDetect.
Here you see a screen shot, how it looks there:

Therefore, I mark this topic as Implemented.

Today an update for ToDoList was released.
The old version was 7.2.7.0 and VulnDetect displayed 7.2.7 (VulnDetect left away the last digit for the last versions of ToDoList).

But today the version 7.2.8.1 was released and here you should show the last digit!
In Help -> About I see also the following information: ToDoList 7.2.8.1 (Stable Version).

In the Ignore Rules you have a blue ? icon, when users click it, then you show a tooltip explainig the meaning of all icons:

Please add also such a blue ? icon in the column header Status in the List of Applications.

Maybe you show the status Update Complete so users see that the update was successfully completed.
Show it until the next system scan was performed.

@OLLI_S Some of the suggestions are now live and Personal is now 1.0, thus, no longer beta.

I've checked the spelling of Prerelease, and Prerelease is an official word, without the -, so we kept it as is.

@Tom I read the following article in the Windows Developer Blog:
https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2022/05/24/microsoft-store-grows-with-the-developer-community/

In this article there is an interesting feature, called Restore Apps.

To make it easier for customers to transition to their new PCs quickly and seamlessly, we will soon test a new feature in the Windows Insider channel that helps customers automatically restore their apps, previously installed from the Microsoft Store, to their new Windows device.

So, when users reinstall Windows or get a new system, all their Windows Store apps can be installed with one click.
This makes it very comfortable for users.

I searched for some of my apps in the Window store and indeed, I found many of them:

Keeper Spotify TreeSize Free Discord Microsoft Teams Skype Norton 360 CCleaner Amazon Music Microsoft Edge Slack Epic Games Store Screenpresso Microsoft Power Automate Microsoft PowerToys paint.net Visual Studio Code Visual Studio Community 2019 Visual Studio Community 2022

These popular apps are also available in the Window store:

Mozilla Firefox TeamSpeak TeamViewer WhatsApp Desktop iTunes iCloud Netflix TikTok Instagram Facebook Lecovo Vantage

It seems like more and more apps are also available in the Windows Store.

Users have the following advantages:

it is very easy to download and install these apps the apps are automatically updated the apps are linked with my Microsoft account, so I can easily install them on a second system too when I reinstall my system, I can install all apps with one click

So more and more users will install ttheir apps via the Microsoft Store.

@OLLI_S 👍

There are several suggestions for this feature request:

Suggest Missing Apps via the List of Applications (this topic) Report missing apps Easier program suggestion

Therefore, I will mark #2 and #3 as Duplicate and keep this topic here.

There must be a user-friendly way, how users can report missing applications.
Posting the applications in the forums is not very user friendly.

Here some suggestion, how missing apps can be reported:

Show a button "Report missing App" in the List of Applications.
Here a "Request missing App" window opens, where users drag the EXE of the application into, and all properties of the EXE are shown in input fields (like you have it in the Toolbox for VulnDetect).
In this field users can add some missing information (like download page, website, etc) and then send the form.
Here also some additional data (like the app-icon and some properties of the EXE file) are uploaded.

When you show the VulnDetect Icon in the System Tray you can show a Context Menu, where users can report a missing app.
Here also the "Request missing App" window is shown, but this is a dialog provided by the VulnDetect Agent (not a web form).

Via a "List of all applications (like suggested above).

Such an online mechanism has the advantage, that you get all required information faster.
And you see, what apps are requested more often (priorization).
