IntuneWin Packaging Tool

This PowerShell script automates the process of packaging a folder into a .intunewin file for Microsoft Intune deployments. It uses the IntuneWinAppUtil.exe tool, downloading it automatically if necessary, and provides user-friendly error handling and output messages. It automatically generates an App in Intune, with Icon, Detection Rule and relevant Metadata.

Features

• Automatically downloads IntuneWinAppUtil.exe if not found in the script's directory.

• The required Powershell modules will be downloaded automatically to the CurrentUser scope, when not already installed.

• Packages the provided folder into a .intunewin file with proper naming.

• Supports drag-and-drop functionality for easy folder selection.

• Displays the full path of the generated .intunewin file upon success.

• If the parameter -Upload is set to $true (Default) it generates a Application in Intune.

• The Install.bat file is used as information source for the Metadata for Intune. Use the REM lines

  Install.Bat	Intune
  REM DESCRIPTION	Name
  REM MANUFACTURER	Publischer
  REM LANGUAGE	Not used
  REM FILENAME	Executable used for detection rule
  REM VERSION	App Version
  REM ASSETNUMBER	Notes
  REM OWNER	Owner of the App

• If you supply the executable file name for the installed Program and the Program is installed locally, a file detection rule is generated automatically.

• If the Package uses MSI, a MSI detection Rule is always generated.

• The first Jpg/Jpeg or PNG file found in the source folder or subfolder will be used as Application Icon in Intune.

• If you want a special Icon to be used you will have to use the command line and supply the full file name.

• Automatically create an App registration and save the log-in data to a Settings.json.

Requirements

• Windows PowerShell 5.1 or PowerShell 7+
• Internet connection (for downloading IntuneWinAppUtil.exe if not already available)

Usage

Drag-and-Drop

1. Drag a folder onto the script file (PackageIntune.ps1).
2. The script will package the folder into a .intunewin file and save it in the Output directory.

Command-Line

1. Open a PowerShell terminal.

2. Run the script with the SourceDir parameter:

   .\PackageIntune.ps1 -SourceDir "C:\Path\To\Your\Folder"

Script Output

• The packaged .intunewin file is saved in the Output directory within the script's folder.
• The script will display the full path of the generated file upon completion.
• In Intune an App will be generated. (If Upload is set to $true)

Error Handling

• If the IntuneWinAppUtil.exe tool is missing, the script will automatically download it.
• Errors during execution are highlighted.

Example Output

==========================================

C:\Path\To\Output\YourFolderName.intunewin

Notes

• Ensure that the Install.bat file exists in the source folder, as it is required by IntuneWinAppUtil.exe.
• The script automatically creates an Output directory in the same location as the script if it does not already exist.

Troubleshooting

• Missing Dependencies: Ensure you have an active internet connection if the script needs to download IntuneWinAppUtil.exe.
• File Not Found Errors: Verify that the provided folder exists and contains the required files.
