ConfigMgr Software Distribution Notification Issues
Two Policy entries control the “New Program notification” for clients, and if either is set to “FALSE”, then the new program pop-up will not show:
- CCM_SoftwareDistributionClientConfig/DisplayNewProgramNotification
- CCM_ClientAgentConfig/DisplayNewProgramNotification
The problem is that the Admin Console makes it relatively easy to get the policy into a state where DisplayNewProgramNotification becomes set to false under CCM_ClientAgentConfig even though the notification option is enabled in the UI.
CCM_SoftwareDistributionClientConfig/DisplayNewProgramNotification Policy
Run WBEMTEST query to determine if either of the ClientConfigs is set to FALSE:
Connect to “root\ccm\policy\machine.”
Click on Query, paste the following query in the “query” window, and click Apply.
select * from CCM_ClientAgentConfig
Double-click the one row that is returned (note if there is more than one),
Click the Show MOF tab in the Object editor window.
Review the setting for DisplayNewProgramNotification. This example below is set to FALSE, so there won’t be any notification for New Programs.
CCM_ClientAgentConfig/DisplayNewProgramNotification Policy
Run WBEMTEST query to determine if either ClientConfigs is set to FALSE and Connect to “root\ccm\policy\machine.”
Click on Query, paste the following query in the “query” window, and click Apply.
Select * from CCM_SoftwareDistributionClientConfig
Double-click the one row that is returned (note if there is more than one) in the Query Result window
On the Object editor window, click the Show MOF tab
Review the setting for “DisplayNewProgramNotification.” This example below is set to FALSE, so there won’t be any notification for New Programs.
If either of these have DisplayNewProgramNotification set to FALSE, then as a workaround, you can do the following:
After the notifications are re-enabled in “Advertised Programs Client Agent Properties,” change “Computer Client Agent” as well, such as changing the org name and forcing the ClientAgentConfig policy to update.

Amazing STUFF Anoop !!!…..this shows how powerful and useful WMI can be when it comes to finding valuable information during troubleshooting activity.
Hi Anoop,
Very great post.
I encountered this problem today and I could be still searching without your solution.
Tks
Hi Anoop, I’m approaching an issue very similar to this one in SCCM Current Branch regarding Application deployment. I want the notifications for installation progress and completion status to show balloon tips and system tray notifications but I do not want the clients to receive ‘New Software is available’ notifications. Do you know of a way this can be achieved?
Hi Anoop,
One of my client is not getting windows updates from SCCM. Could you please assist on this. Below is the WUAHandler.log:
