Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise x64 Clients had .NET 4.6.2 installed; installed .NET 4.7 and found that Windows Update Tool displayed ndp46-kb4040973-x64.exe was vulnerable yet the update fails to re-target via Patch Management Solution.
Manually ran ndp46-kb4040973-x64.exe and found the system displayed Compliant status per Windows Update Tool.
Target rule logic accurately set for the appropriate file version; however, confirmed the update must be re-applied if .NET is upgraded.
Patch Management Solution 7.5.x, 7.6.x and 8.x
This issue will be resolved in the next PMImport release.
