Application Deployment configured as Available installed automatically

Hi,

We are using SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 cu1 and have all roles on a single windows 2012 R2 server.

I have deployed an application which first uninstalls an app and then installs the an app, which works well.

I have deployed this to computer devices as an available installation, so that it can be installed on demand by an administrator when they logon to the machine, just to control when it get installed. We have a couple of maintenance windows configured for updates which occur twice a week.

However, the application has been installed automatically during a maintenance window on a number of machines. Is this the correct behaviour since TechNet says the app will be installed on demand by a user? (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682082.aspx). The only other thing going on is that some windows updates have been rolled out using a deployment template, and they have installed during the maintenance window. What would cause the available app to install automatically?

I then retired the application since it was still showing up on some other devices as waiting for their maintenance window and I didn't want these devices to have the new app, and once retired the app disappeared from software centre on those devices. However, the next day when the maintenance window ran and the application was installed to some more devices. Again windows updates were also installed during the MW. Does anyone know what would cause this since retiring the application deployment should make it unavailable to the clients to be installed?.
