Correct App detection rule File Path for User Folder
Detection rules run as SYSTEM, not as user even if you deploy it as a user package. You have to use something outside a Users folder to detect the installation, I usually create a file in c:\programdata\customername\...\installed.txt and check on that to see if the installation succeeded

Harm_Veenstra Ahh makes sense. No wonder I couldn’t find much documentation on it. Do you have any doc that states the detection rule is on the system level? And thanks for the tip too!
It doesn't really mention it on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/apps-win32-add#step-4-detection-rules , but it's just the way it works I'm afraid (Many people ask for user level detection rules).
Please mark my answer as solution to mark it as solved.- Ok thanks so much for your response and help!
