Unable to run the batch file via sccm to copy the folders for outlook signature

Vaibhav Thakur 1

Hi All,
I have created batch file to copy signature folder for outlook. Manage to run the batch file, works fine. When I push the file via SCCM using .exe it is getting downloaded under ccm cache but can not execute. Under software centre shows only "installing.

Batch file : Xcopy /s /Y "folder name" "destination folder path"

I want to copy outlook signature folder to all end users for common signature templates

I am using Application method. I have converted batch file to exe under SCCM.
The batch file i have created locally works fine, but when i create the package and push via sccm not successful.

I have created few signatures under Outlook, and copied separately under one folder

I want to copy Signatures folder under users profile: %AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Signatures

Batch file details: both the batch files locally works file but when i push via SCCM converting batch file to exe files is not able to execute.
Manage copy file from sccm under ccm cache, can see under software centre, but execution not happening.

xcopy/s/Y "Signatures" "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Signatures"
xcopy/s sgxsig2020.txt "%APPDATA%\Microsoft"

xcopy /s/Y "%~dp0Signatures" "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Signatures"
xcopy/s sgxsig2020.txt "%APPDATA%\Microsoft"

And EXACTLY how are you deploying this to users? Are you using the system account or the user account? The system account is the default.

This is controllered by your deployment... Again system account is the default deployment account.

@Vaibhav Thakur
As Garth Jones said, more information about this issue is needed
It can be seen from the description that the issue occurs during the installation process. Are you using application or package to deploy the batch file by SCCM? You need to check different logs if you use different deployment methods. If you use the application deployment method, you may check AppEnforce.log; If you use the package deployment method, you may check execmgr.log.

Instead of copying and trying to push the signature to all users, you could use the HTML code and the method mentioned in this article: VBScript: create an HTML Outlook email signature for the whole company
This way, all signatures will be personalized with individual users' AD properties.
