Hello sylsimp1
If the app was deployed as Available, users can reinstall it themselves via Company Portal.
If the app was deployed as Required, you can temporarily make it Available so the user can reinstall it.
To repair the app via Microsoft Intune, you may need to adjust the detection logic or use a script-based detection method to identify devices where the app requires repair.
Trigger a device sync by going to:
Settings > Accounts > Access work or school > Info > Sync, or by using the Company Portal. This allows the device to detect that the app is missing or unhealthy and reinstall or repair it automatically.
Alternatively, deploy a Proactive Remediation:
- A detection script checks whether the app is broken
- A remediation script runs a silent repair command, or uninstalls the app so the user can reinstall it via Company Portal
