Perhaps this you're overengineering 😉 What you could do is create a folder on your hard-drive c:\install. Copy all the files and directories like in your screenshot in it (Gaomon, GaomonTablet and the install.ps1.) Create another directory in c:\install, Shortcut for example, and copy shortcuts for your application in it that do work (Just create them on a system on which the applications already are installed) Adjust your install.ps1 script like this
#Copy files New-Item -Path "c:\" -Name "Gaomon" -ItemType "directory" -force Copy-Item -Path "Gaomon\*" -Destination "C:\Gaomon" -Recurse -force New-Item -Path "c:\" -Name "GaomonTablet" -ItemType "directory" -force Copy-Item -Path "GaomonTablet\*" -Destination "C:\GaomonTablet" -Recurse -force $Copy Shortcuts [system.string]$Desktop = [Environment]::GetFolderPath("Desktop") Copy-Item -path "Shortcut\Gaomon.lnk" -Destination "$($Desktop)\Gamon.lnk" Copy-Item -path "Shortcut\Gaomon.lnk" -Destination $($env:APPDATA)\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" Copy-Item -path "Shortcut\Gaomon Tablet.lnk" -Destination "$($Desktop)\Gamon.lnk" Copy-Item -path "Shortcut\Gaomon Tablet.lnk" -Destination $($env:APPDATA)\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"
Uninstall.ps1 would be something like this perhaps:
#Remove files remove-item c:\Gaomon -recurse -force remove-item c:\GaomonTablet -recurse -force [system.string]$Desktop = [Environment]::GetFolderPath("Desktop") remove-item "$($desktop\gaomon.lnk" -force remove-item "$($desktop\gaomon tablet. lnk" -force remove-item "$($env:APPDATA)\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\gamon.lnk" -force remove-item "$($env:APPDATA)\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\gamon tablet.lnk" -force
Not sure if you need shortcuts for Gaomon and Gaomon on all locations 🙂 Create a .intunewin package from your c:\install location

The software and it's site (Multiple Google Drive download links for official software?!?) seems almost not real/scam, but I downloaded the software in a Sandbox VM and installed it.. Almost seems like you can install it, copy the Gaomon and Goamontablet directory from your Appdata\Roaming folder to another pc and you can start it without installing?
