What is the best way to deploy an app by using Intune - by the msi or should that be converted into an exe?
- erickmichaelSep 28, 2023Copper Contributor
I have found that the two best ways to deploy an app in Intune are:
- Microsoft Win32 Content Prep Tool
- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/apps-win32-app-management
- The best feature of this tool is its superscedence functionality and that alone is why we now use it for all installations.
- Microsoft Store Apps

- Microsoft Win32 Content Prep Tool

Hi Rich, No need to convert an MSI to an EXE, you can upload and deploy an MSI with Intune. I'd start with this topic... and it might be helpful to read some other topics in the table of contents if you want more context.

I forgot to mention, if you already have an MSI and it's not a Store app, look at LOB apps as well as Win32 apps!
