    After migrating to the new store, we have several problems: |||| - Auto-Update of the apps works very unreliable, as a workaround I implemented a proactive remediation: "Get-CimInstance -Namespace "Root\cimv2\mdm\dmmap" -ClassName "MDM_EnterpriseModernAppManagement_AppManagement01" | Invoke-CimMethod -MethodName UpdateScanMethod" Is it planed to make the auto update mechanism more stable? |||| - Random failure of App installation as example the company portal app (0x80131509, 0x8024402C, 0x80131509, 0x00000000). Are there improvements planed? |||| - If I deploy a new app with Intune as available. The Intune Portal shows me 0 Installed but that's not the real situation. Is it planed to add the feature "Re-discover Application" to the Microsoft Store / Company Portal? It would be nice to have the real status of the apps in Intune. Some Triggers in the Company Portal would also be nice, as we have in the ConfigMgr Agent ->Actions: Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle Thank You.

      Attempting to recall all of my French skills from when I was younger, but I believe roughly translated this question is: Hello, Hi everyone, I have a little problem with the Teams app. Each time I connect using my Microsoft account it attempts to open then lingers but never fully opens. Do you know why?

        Bonjour : Salut Roy_MacLachlan, je vous remercie beaucoup pour votre réponse à ma question toute simple, en vérité j'ai résolu le problème en désinstallant l'application teams puis l'instillant de nouveau, Votre réponse, ou plutôt votre reformulation de ma question, me rappelle l'histoire d'Ali Baba et des quarante voleurs, quand le chef de la clique a essayé d'ouvrir la porte de la grotte et au lieu de dire la fameuse phrase : Ouvre Sésame, il a dit : Ouvre, citrouille. Porte de la grotte, merci. Cordialement

    I have wanted to put an app in the Microsoft Store, but lack information about how to build a store app. I've written code, however, it won't compile and link. Alas, the day of this event I have to prepare for a somewhat routine medical procedure in a hospital the following day, and I'm not sure I'll be able to attend. Is there any way I can communicate with someone about this at a different time?

    Can we please have a plan to where both Microsoft Store and winget can be accessed and updated by NT Authority\SYSTEM ? System account needs to be able to update Store and winget apps for all existing local user profiles. this is a desperate need for enterprise.

    Can you clarify the position on the retiral of Store for Business? I understand that's postponed but the link to Intune has been cut and Enterprises restricting Windows Store access to Private Only are left with a Store shortcut that no longer works. I appreciate the Company Portal is the way forward in that scenario but there's no settings template to toggle off / hide Store shortcuts on the store availability Intune policy. Are Enterprises to deploy restricted menu tiles to hide the store? (Presumable disable not recommended). I felt the the comms around this didn't seem joined up.

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but I would like to know why my Windows 11 Night Light keeps turning off on its own and how to stop that. Thanks
  • Is there any plan to provide these features for winget via Intune? - dependencies - provide MST files with an installation (created by Adobe Acrobat (Reader) config tool, InstED! / Orca

    Not so much a question, more of a request. Can we please have native support in Intune for deploying winget-sourced applications?

      if we could just get the SYSTEM account to be able to access/use winget.... that'd be SWELL

        From my testing, you can, although it's clunky to say the least. It just seems that path to the winget executable is not available to the local system account. Getting a bit creative with Powershell, it's possible to just search for winget.exe and then supply the full path when running it.
