We’re running into an Intune issue where a Win32 app with a dependency sits at "Download Pending"
Setup: Main App: Installs in User Context Dependency: Installs in System Context Dependency Detection: Hosts file modification detection script Direct file detection does NOT work either When the hosts file modification is present (detection is met), detection works, and everything installs fine manually The Problem: If detection passes (exit 0) → Everything installs fine. If detection fails (exit 1) → Intune never moves forward, just stays at "Download Pending" indefinitely. Happens with both file-based detection and script-based detection. Dependency app as well at parent app install fine via Intune on their own as well as manual testing. What We Need to Know: Does Intune get stuck in "Download Pending" instead of moving forward when dependency detection fails? Could the install context mismatch (dependency in SYSTEM, main app in USER) be causing this? Myth or fact? Does Intune break the install process if a dependency app is in system context and the parent app is in user context? Again, both apps work fine independent of each other. Thanks for any help!
Deploying Script as Win32 App
Hi all, I created a script that is supposed to check if a certain app was installed from a managed installer, then create a file in the C:\Temp folder if it was installed from a managed installer. I would deploy this as a Win32 app so that I could use the detection rules in the Win32 App deployment to check which device was installed via a managed installer. However, it doesn't seem to work. I created a transcript log as well to check if I would get an output from the variables, but it seems to only run the else block in the If Statement. We use a Business Premium license, so I don't access to Enterprise license capabilities like proactive remediation scripts. It is run using the System credentials, I've tested the script locally which works. Thank you, I've included some images of the script and transcript log. Script: Transcript Log Output:
