    Deploy Win32 apps with Microsoft Intune

    Peter KlapwijkBy Peter KlapwijkNovember 1, 2018Updated:December 3, 20193 Mins Read

    At Microsoft Ignite Brad Anderson announced a new feature for Microsoft Intune; deploy Win32 applications with Microsoft Intune. A much requested feature for Intune, to remove another blocker in modern desktop deployment. In this blog I will have a look at this feature with the deployment of Google Chrome with Intune.

    Pre-requisites

    There are some pre-requisites for the client and application:

    • Windows 10 1607 or later and at this moment Enterprise edition
    • Client needs to be (Hybrid) Azure AD joined
    • Enrolled in Intune
    • Application size is capped at 2GB

    Prepare the application

    We need to wrap the installer file first with a tool which you find here at GitHub. Download the file to a local folder and start the tool from a command prompt or PowerShell. The tool will ask you for the source folder, setup file and an output folder.

    IntuneWinAppUtil

    The installer file will be converted to an .intunewin file which can be uploaded to Intune. The tool provides you verbose logging. When Done!!! is shown the .intunewin file is ready for deployment.

    App conversion

    Deploy the app with Intune

    Now it`s time to upload the file to Intune and deploy it to your Intune managed Windows 10 devices.

    • Logon to the Microsoft 365 Device Management portal via devicemanagement.microsoft.com
    • Click on Client Apps, Apps, Add.
    • Select Windows app (Win32)

    Add app

    open the App package file tab and select your .intunewin file to upload to Intune.

    App package file

    At the App information tab at least fill in a Name for the application, a Description and the Publisher.

    App information

    On the Program tab you need to provide the install and uninstall commands. In this case the commands are pre-configured.

    Program

    On the Requirements tab for a minimum you need to choose Operating system architecture and the Minimum operating system.

    Requirements

    On the Detection rules tab you are able to define a detection rule. Choose Manually configure detection rules and as rule type MSI. If not already pre-configured, fill in the MSI product code. Other rule types are file and registry. If needed you can add multiple rules or use a detection script.

    Detection rules

    On the last tab (Return codes) verify the pre-configured codes, click OK and Add app to start uploading the application.

    Return codes

    When the upload is finished you are able to assign the application to the required group. After a sync with Intune the application will be installed in a short time.
