Deploying MuseScore 4 on Intune

[ewan]

Hi all, having absolutley no luck getting MuseScore 4 to deploy onto our 1:1 Surface devices deployed via Intune. Have tried lots of different install commands and cannot get it to install. Even tried to deploy it using the Microsoft Store version but even that fails. Chocolate kettle comes to mind when I read the errors that it returns so I am just wondering if anyone else has had luck with deploying MuseScore 4 to their devices and how you go about doing it. Cheers.

Did you download the exe version or MSI? I am using the MSI Version and that seems to have deployed fine.

MSI wrapped into a Win32 App package with the install command msiexec /i "MuseScore-Studio-4.3.2.241630831-x86_64.MSI" /quiet /norestart

 

Have also tried installing as a LOB app with no luck either.

 

Would you be able to share your configuration for installing? Looks like we will need this for September and its one less head ache I could do with having.

Hi Ewan,I’m posting this here so others can resolve the same issue if they encounter it. After reviewing your configuration, it appears the software is attempting to install in “user context.” I changed mine to install in “device context,” but you’ll notice this option is greyed out. To fix this, we need to edit the MSI to allow installation in device context.I recommend using Orca from Microsoft, which you can download here. Orca.exe - Win32 apps | Microsoft LearnOnce you’ve installed Orca, right-click on your MSI file and select “Edit with Orca.” In the tables section, click on “Property” and search for “ALLUSERS.” If this property exists, it will likely be set to 0. Changing the value to 1 will allow installation for the device, or setting it to 2 will enable both options.If you don’t see a value for “ALLUSERS,” you’ll need to manually add it to the property table.Let me know if you need further assistance.

Many thanks. This worked for me.

Just did this with the latest download and had to add the "ALLUSERS" value. Worked a treat. Cheers for this :)

Just encountered this issue.

 

We install MuseScore via a Scheduled Task (chocolatey), so run under the SYSTEM user. It looks as though after version 4.6.5, installing the msi under the SYSTEM user will fail to create the shortcuts or appwiz.cpl entry for all users, even if the ALLUSERS=1 or MSIINSTALLPERUSER="" parameters are used.

 

Applying a transform that adds the ALLUSERS property with value 1 to the Properties table fixes it.
