Attach powershell script to Intune package

Hi,

I'm trying to run a PowerShell script to copy some .xml files from network location to client machines (C:\ProgramData\PCDr\etc). When I run the script on the client as an admin it works and copies the files to the location but when Intune runs it as system context (Device-Scripts) it fails and I see permission, to the destination folder, error. To my best knowledge Intune is pushing the script through with admin rights. I must be missing something and any assistance with this will be appreciated.

Thank you

    @Thomas Reddy Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

    For this issue, running the script on the client as an admin successfully doesn't mean that it will work when you deploy the script via intune.

    It is suggested to try to run the script in the System account using the psexec tool. If it works well, we can deploy the script via intune. Here are the steps:

    1.Install PsExec

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/psexec

    2.Copy PsExec.exe to C:\Windows\System32

    3.Open Powershell as admin and run the following command:

    PsExec.exe -s -i powershell.exe

    4.Then run the script in the new PowerShell windows.

    If there is anything update, feel free to let us know.
