Deploy MSI / LOB App as Admin
Hi All
Any ideas on how to deploy an MSI via Intune that requires Admin rights to install on systems where the users are Standard Users?
Info appreciated
Hey StuartK73,
actually this is the standard scenario for most enterprises. Deploy your MSI LOB app as an Win32 app in Intune:
You need to wrap it as an .intunewin (https://github.com/microsoft/Microsoft-Win32-Content-Prep-Tool) and then deploy it with the setting Install behavior: System
You have to use the silent install parameters for the installer. This depends on the individual setup you are using, setup.exe have often individual ones like /silent /quiet etc. msi should be more standardized and the content prep tool should you support there and generate command lines like: msiexec /i "Notepad++7.6.6.msi" /q for silent install.
The MS documentation is here:

Hey Oliver! Thanks for this post. Do you know why system would be grayed out? Its automatically user
Thanks!
StuartK73 Indeed using Win32 app that should be possible.
