Win32 app install not showing up in Start Menu/Apps List
We have a Win32 app that we're deploying as an Available app through Company Portal. The files for the app show up in C:\Program Files (x86) in the app's folder on the endpoint; however, the app does...
- Does using the MSI for installation change anything? (Add a new application to Intune and use the Line-Of-Business app. For that, select CyberCabinetInstaller.msi. )
It depends on how you install it. Do you install it for all users? Do you install it with System or User installation behavior? If the detection is a file detection in c:\program files (x86)\. Then the software is installed for Intune.
Assignment is to a user group of particular users who need the software, so it shows up in their Company Portal. Install is intended for all users (not intentionally limiting it/doing anything that should restrict it). This uses the System installation behavior. Yes, detection is a file in C:\Program Files (x86)\... Is there a way to keep this install going to finish those last 2 steps (appearing in the Start Menu and Programs and Features/Apps)?
- I was referring to the installation behavior 😊you can install software for this user only, or for all users. Usually it's a silent install parameter. You could also script the shortcut creation or do a copy of the link to the All Users Start Menu.
What do you install and how does your install command look like? MSI or Win32 app?- That could be a possibility - creating a shortcut to the All Users Start Menu.
I'm installing something called "ATC CyberCabinet." It's a Win32 app.
The install command I'm using is: setup.exe /quiet- If you don't have any other documentation with parameters enabling shortcut creation for everyone, I suggest saving the correct shortcut in the folder in which you create the Win32 package. Also, save an install.cmd there with the following contents:
copy "ATC CyberCabinet.lnk" "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"
setup.exe /quiet
