An Intune question: When will Intune get a true application reinstall solution similar to MECM?
If I install it using MECM when I click on reinstall it goes through the entire application reinstallation process.
If I install an application using Intune and it eventually becomes corrupt for some reason, if the user attempts to reinstall the app looks at the success condition first, sees that it's showing success from the initial install and won't reinstall the app. This results in calls to the help desk for someone to remove the success condition.
MicrosoftHi Terry_Rutter​, it sounds like you are looking for a "repair" function. Today, the best path for this is to allow the end user to uninstall the app and then they can reinstall it. This is not truly sufficient and we are aware. An actual app "repair" function is in the backlog but we have nothing to share on when this will be delivered. Please make sure to add feedback to the Intune admin console on this.
