Methods for management of software installation and/or execution utilize a third-party management system to load a “fingerprint” to user digital data processing equipment before a file (such as a patch installation file) can be installed and/or executed on that equipment. The fingerprint can be a filename, file length, CRC code and/or encrypted form of one or more of the foregoing or of any other information that identifies the software to be installed and/or executed.
