Deploy MSI Application using Intune / MEM

In this post we will go over how to deploy an MSI application using Intune / MEM to a Windows 10 managed endpoint.

The below KB from Microsoft goes through deploying a line of business application

Add a Windows line-of-business app to Microsoft Intune | Microsoft Docs

To logon to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center go to

https://endpoint.microsoft.com

Once in the MEM console go to Apps

Click on Add

Select app type: other > Line-of-business app

Once the wizard starts select app package and go to the MSI that is going to be deployed. We will be using Firefox in this post.

Next we can fill in the application details. The mandatory fields are Name, description and publisher.

Next we set the application deployment type either an install (required or available) or uninstall and deploy this to a certain group or all users / devices. We will be settings this deployment as available.

Last step is to review and create the app deployment

The application should now show in the Windows app blade.

Once the managed Windows device syncs with MEM the application should then show as available to install in the company portal.

If the application doesn’t show we can run a sync in MEM admin center or directly on the Windows 10 device.

To start the install click on the application.

Once installed we can check the application in MEM admin center to view compliance for the application deployment.
