So if you have a software, and you don't want to deploy it as package (this is still possible and they can still be rerun with tools like Roger Zanders client center), what you can do is use a detection method that you can influence. It is the only thing that will trigger the setup. The thing is applications are all about the detection method. We also talked to two Microsoft SCCM consultants about it and both said there is currently no way. In our company we would also have to liked this and did some basic research but as it seems no one has done it so far (doesn't mean it's impossible). Or I didn't find a way, because there is none? :( I am sure, many others have the same problem. Is there some documentation, where I could get some information about this issue? Is there a Right Click Tool which can reinstall an application somehow? I thought I could write a program to that, and create my own "Right Click Tool", but I can't find any information what exactly should I do?

I have to remove it, and then install it again.
But, in SCCM I have no option(neither found a right click tool which could do that), to reinstall the package. The package I created supports the reinstallation(either by removing the software and installing it again, or with a repair functionality). One week later a user calls, he is having trouble with this application. I created an installation package from a software, then distributed it as an "Application". In SCCM 2012 I still couldn't find a way, how could I reinstall an application?
In SCCM 2007, there were several "Right Click Tools", and with their help it was possible to "reinstall" a package.
