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?

2023-09-20T04:39:16.41+00:00 I ready the blog you shared on local accounts, and did the test with the local system account by running the command and it worked on that machine,however,if i try pushing the command through task sequence through sccm,the app is not been uninstalled and not giving any error for that deployment in sccm.

2023-09-21T10:18:51.8633333+00:00 I would have the script write out a log file so that you can see the results of each step. Can I assume that you test the script using x86 cmd as per the blog?

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
Hope it helps. Have a nice day!
Best regards,
Simon
