v2026.9.30.110-alpha7

Warning

This is an alpha release. It is explicitly short-lived and will move through fast, breaking iterations until we land on a release candidate. Do not use in production. Expect frequent changes without deprecation notice.

Changes since alpha6

• Prefer package included MSI for repair as system cache might be corrupted
• Run UI and Active Setup only for active user sessions, not all logged on sessions
• Include user data in Empirum cleanup
• Make sure package registration is also performed, if the session was closed via Close-ADTSession or -ExitOnProcessFailure
• Fix an errant default value in the Setup.cfg template
• Try to catch errors during session opening so that they may be present in the logs and announce a correct exit code
• Merge all deployment system logics into one module for better distribution
• Fix an issue in Remove-NXTEmptyFolder where relative paths would throw an exception
• Include Update-NXTDeploymentStatus to apply exit code to session mapping
• Drop custom CustomUpgrade*OnError hooks as the non error path also shared the hooks with reinstall
• Drop auto detection for deployment system. User/ System must explicitly define intent
• Include hook origin in logs
• Exit deployment if deployment status degraded after running a custom function
• Expand meta variables only in package config at initialization
• Include package variables in expansion
• Use modern criteria based detection in (Un)Install-NXTApplication
  • Allow conversion from scriptblock and string into criteria to mimic legacy behaviour
• Include which store a installed application originated from
• Handle issue where empty arguments would crash ConvertTo-NXTPSArgumentString (This issue surfaced in Restart-NXTDeployScript)
• Bring back a warning about mismatched ExecutionPolicies between toolkit and system policies
• Fix and issue where the wrong execution policy might be propagated
• Include a different Setup.ico in template and make it the default icon
• Change the error window to display the actual error message, origin and exit code
• Fix and issue where the analyzer could not handle empty namespaces
• Change function name from Remove-NXTUserEnvironment to Clear-NXTUserEnvironmentVariable
