New Teams Won't Show in Start Menu or Add/Remove Programs After Intune Install
Hi..
We are starting to add the new Teams app to our Intune autopilot deployment sequence. We are using the teamsbootstrapper.exe file to install
The problem is that while we know it does install as we can see the Teams folder in c:\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps directory, Teams icon/shortcut does not get added to the Windows start menu nor is it listed in add/remove programs.
In Intune we've tried the following install commands:
1: teamsbootstrapper.exe -p
2: and this powershell script:
function ProvisionTeams {
param (
[string]$ProvisionMode
)
if ($ProvisionMode -eq "AllUsers") {
Start-Process -FilePath ".\teamsbootstrapper.exe" -ArgumentList "-p" -Wait -WindowStyle Hidden
}
elseif ($ProvisionMode -eq "CurrentUser") {
Start-Process -FilePath ".\teamsbootstrapper.exe" -ArgumentList "-p" -Wait -WindowStyle Hidden
}
else {
Write-Host "Invalid ProvisionMode specified. Use 'AllUsers' or 'CurrentUser'."
}
}
# Provision for all users
ProvisionTeams -ProvisionMode "AllUsers"
# Provision for the current user
ProvisionTeams -ProvisionMode "CurrentUser"
And neither yield allow for Teams to show up in start menu for users to access.
Anyone got any ideas????
- RekkertCopper ContributorFinally found a solution for Intune.
Despite what Microsoft claims on the Microsoft Learn page, you don't need the bootstrapper..
Just upload the MSIX to intune and let it run under user context.
Ps. I work at a MSP.
Only saw this behavior with Hybrid joined devices.
When only using Entra joined we are able to get this working like it says on the learn page.
Hope this helps someone! - WinuxCopper ContributorWe've had a similar problem.
Not using Intune, but installed Teams with the teamsbootstrapper.exe in non-persistent VDI with FSlogix (roaming profiles).
Teams was showing in admin context, not in user context. After reading and applying this article: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/core-infrastructure-and-security/mysteriously-disappearing-start-menu-tiles-and-roaming-user/ba-p/259048, Problem solved. - NicklasOlsenIron ContributorHi,
Does the new Teams appear for the user after a restart of the device?- A-DogCopper Contributor
NicklasOlsen No sir, it does not.
- NicklasOlsenIron ContributorTry to follow this guide, I have tried and it worked without any issues 🙂
