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!
WebView2 external dependency cannot be installed from an MSIX package on a Windows 10 target machine
Hi, I have built an MSIX package that includes https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/schemas/appxpackage/uapmanifestschema/element-win32dependencies-externaldependency using Microsoft Packaging Tool (also tried to build same MSIX with Advanced Installer too). When trying to install the MSIX on a Windows 10 machine (v21h2) I get the following WebView error: There was a problem installing. Error code: 0x80040c01 Is there any known issue with WebView2 external dependency installation from an MSIX on Windows 10 machines? How can I troubleshoot this issue? Here it is the full manifest of the sample MSIX I have built: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Package xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10" xmlns:win32dependencies="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/externaldependencies" xmlns:build="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/appx/2015/build" xmlns:uap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/uap/windows10" xmlns:rescap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10/restrictedcapabilities" IgnorableNamespaces="uap rescap build win32dependencies"> <Identity Name="YourCompany.YourApplication" ProcessorArchitecture="x64" Publisher="CN=TestCert_2022-3-30_10-31-15" Version="1.0.1.0" /> <Properties> <PublisherDisplayName>Your Company</PublisherDisplayName> <DisplayName>Your Application</DisplayName> <Logo>Assets\Store50x50Logo.png</Logo> </Properties> <Resources> <Resource Language="en-US" /> <Resource uap:Scale="100" /> </Resources> <Dependencies> <TargetDeviceFamily MaxVersionTested="10.0.22000.0" MinVersion="10.0.17763.0" Name="Windows.Desktop" /> <win32dependencies:ExternalDependency Name="Microsoft.WebView2" Publisher="CN=Microsoft Windows, O=Microsoft Corporation, L=Redmond, S=Washington, C=US" MinVersion="1.1.1.1" Optional="true" /> </Dependencies> <Applications> <Application EntryPoint="Windows.FullTrustApplication" Executable="AI_STUBS\AiStub.exe" Id="updater.exe"> <uap:VisualElements BackgroundColor="transparent" Description="Advanced Updater" DisplayName="updater.exe" Square150x150Logo="Assets\updater.exeSquare150x150Logo.png" Square44x44Logo="Assets\updater.exeSquare44x44Logo.png"> <uap:InitialRotationPreference> <uap:Rotation Preference="portrait" /> <uap:Rotation Preference="landscape" /> </uap:InitialRotationPreference> </uap:VisualElements> </Application> </Applications> <build:Metadata> <build:Item Name="OperatingSystem" Version="10.0.22000.708" /> <build:Item Name="AdvancedInstaller" Version="19.6 (bf52c98e)" /> <build:Item Name="ProjectLicenseType" Version="architect" /> <build:Item Name="SignTool.exe" Version="10.0.20348.1" /> <build:Item Name="MakePri.exe" Version="10.0.20348.1" /> </build:Metadata> <Capabilities> <rescap:Capability Name="runFullTrust" /> </Capabilities> </Package> Thanks, Daniel
Dependency Options
Hi community, I recently started using MS Project Web version and it is so pared down compared to the desktop program. I am looking for dependency options like Finish>Start (FS), Start>Finish (SF), Start>Start, (SS) Finish>Finish (FF) and I fear it doesn't exist. Please help! Thanks very much
To-Do is great but what's next?
Hi, Really like Microsoft To-Do, love how simple to use and quickly you can focus on particular tasks in the day whether due or not. Also, through adding a 'quick step' in outlook it is easy to bring tasks through driven by emails received. Like others though I'm interested to see what future developments there will be, is there a roadmap for what is coming out? The latest version seems to give ability to add notes and details when the tasks are created. Personally I'd like to see To-Do retain it's simplicity but the ability to have sub-tasks or dependent tasks and then to be able to share and allocate other MS users. If To-Do could link with Onenote and other MS applications too I'm sure that would be extremely useful. However, really found the app useful as it stands and look forward to further developments. Ross.
