Intune unfortunately does not have the ability today to enable system apps in the Device Owner scenarios. However, you are able to modify the QR code as you mention with the settings in your post, there just a few things to consider when doing this:
- This is outside of the Intune code path, so we have no control over it. I would recommend testing to see if you are ok with the behavior you can observe.
- Once the apps are enabled, they cannot be disabled unless the device is reset.
- King_Of_CommsJul 15, 2019Copper ContributorThanks for your Swift reply and advise, most appreciated , I will definitely give this a try as drawing blanks elsewhere, can you advise or recommend whats best to edit the qr code
not had much experiencing in doing that before but want to learn as im sure its relativity straight forward, just conscious 3rd party tools may be unsecure and inject other lines etc into the code - markusrathkeJul 11, 2019Copper Contributor
Hi MatthewButcher,
i've tried to add the following code to my qr code but this has no effect.
"android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED":true
Are you able to help?

Hi markusrathke,
This option will perform the following:
- It enables all system applications specific to that OEM and it is not knowable until the device is provisioned
- Once they are enabled, they cannot be disabled a la carte or in bulk until the device is factory reset
As this is outside of the Intune code base, unfortunately the only direction I can give you if you are experiencing issues would be to work with the OEM and or Google.
