contents We show that any topological, closed, oriented, non-spin $4$-manifold with fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}_{4k}$ and $\min(b_2^+, b_2^-)\geq 15$, has either none or infinitely many distinct smooth structures. Furthermore, we construct infinitely many non-diffeomorphic, irreducible, smooth structures on manifolds with signature zero, $b_2^+$ even and fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}_2\times G$, for any finite group $G$. This extends the results of Baykur-Stipsicz-Szabó.
