Win32 Application Modification

This guide will provide background information on modifying an existing application package deployment.

Win32 Apps

If you would like to deploy applications down to computers, you must package the application in a method that is recognizable to Intune. This involves gathering the application itself, and then using the Microsoft Win32 Content Prep Tool to package the app.

Modifying Win32 Apps

1. Navigate to the All Apps – Intune portal, locate and select the desired application you want to modify.
   
2. Upon opening the application package, select the Properties tab; all the information of the app will be displayed, from naming all the way to group assignment. Seven points of interest will be available to Edit. You can modify the sections as needed.
   
   1. App Information: Adjusts non-functional items of the application, such as the Name or Version of the application.
      
   2. Program: Controls how the application will be deployed through Intune, such as the system derived CMD commands that will be utilized to deploy or remove the application from the endpoint.
      
   3. Requirements: Specify OS specifications that need to be met by the endpoints for the deployment package to be initialized.
      
   4. Detection Rules: Specifies how Intune will look for the applications presence on the device, such as the file location, the msi location or registry value on the machine.
      
   5. Dependencies: Specify if any other software deployment packages need to be present on a device before this application can be initialized.
      
   6. Supersedence: Specifies if the current application deployment package will be used to update or replace an existing application deployment package.
   7. Assignments: Specifies which Groups will be required, or optional for application deployment package instillation, as well as which groups will need to have this package removed from their devices using the uninstall section.
   
3. Regardless of which section is selected to be Edited, the same redirect to the Edit Policy page will be displayed. The first page will display the selected sections current configuration and will allow you to make the necessary adjustments (additions, removals, editing, etc.) The second page will be the Review section where you will finalize the changes. Once the necessary adjustments have been configured for the selected section select Review + save to continue to the modification finalization stage.
   
4. Once on the revisions page, if all the necessary adjustments look correct, select Save to finalize the modification process.
