Kiosk mode
I'm loving the Kiosk mode template in Intune and works great for browser only kiosks.
However I do have some COTS apps that I also want to run in a multiapp kiosk mode. I go to add them using the Add Win32 app but it asks for a AUMID but the application is very bespoke and many don't have a unique AUMID or at least not one that look like
I run Get-StartApps in powershell and they come up but the apps in question have what looks like a random GUID
Example below Notepad++ has a guid but PowerPoint is very "human readable" . Even though its a GUID will this still work?
Notepad++ {6D809377-6AF0-444B-8957-A3773F02200E}\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
PowerPoint Microsoft.Office.POWERPNT.EXE.15

BREAKTHROUGH!!!!
Doing it this way works:
AUMID/PATH:
%programfiles%\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
DesktopApplicationId/AUMID for the Win32 app:
{6D809377-6AF0-444B-8957-A3773F02200E}\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
Hazzah!
Hi, sure, even if it looks like a random GUID, it doesn’t matter as long as it’s the correct AUMID. Just plug it in exactly as it appears in Get-StartApps, and Intune’s multi-app kiosk mode should work fine for your custom apps.
Tried this no luck.
I put the full string {6D809377-6AF0-444B-8957-A3773F02200E}\Notepad++\notepad++.exe into the
AUMID/PATH and it said "Must be a valid file path". Looking at the output of get-startapps Must be a valid file path appears a number of times. After some googling i think it represents %programfiles% so I put this:
AUMID/PATH: %programfiles%\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
DesktopApplicationId/AUMID for the Win32 app: {6D809377-6AF0-444B-8957-A3773F02200E}
Yes I confirmed %programfiles%\Notepad++\notepad++.exe is the right path. Apply the policy and I get a blank tile that does nothing when I click on it.
