Trying to remove 3D viewer from end user machines thru powershell with the following:

Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.Microsoft3DViewer* | Remove-AppxPackage

It works manually but not in system context when deploying the script from SCCM. Am I missing something obvious? Or is there just an easier/different way to go about this?

    You need to test you script using the local system account. https://www.recastsoftware.com/resources/how-to-access-the-local-system-account/

    Hi,

    Agree with Garth. This issue may be related to the running context. We can use PsExec.exe to run the package/program under a specified credential. For more detailed information, please refer to:

    How to Access the Local System Account

    MDT/SCCM 2010 - Running Applications Installations under different credentials

    PsTools

    Hope it helps. Have a nice day!

    Best regards,

    Simon
