When is Win32 app supersedence going to get the option to "automatically upgrade any superseded versions of this application" that has existed in Config Manager for years?
Example: Notepad++8.6.4 is deployed as available for enrolled devices. Notepad++ 8.6.5 is released. We create a Notepad 8.6.5 app, have it supersede the 8.6.4 app, and deploy it as available for enrolled devices. I want devices with no Notepad++ installed to see version 8.6.5 available in Company Portal (which happens now), but I also want that deployment to forcibly upgrade the devices with 8.6.4 (which does not happen now).

With EAM we are developing a "guided upgrade" experience, but are also looking at a "set-it-and-forget-it" experience. No timeline on the set-it-and-forget-it (or automatic upgrade) but it's something we know is important and are investigating the best way to offer it without breaking your existing processes.
