We have developed an UWP application in a .NET MAUI framework. We are facing issues with the deployment of the application. The end user machines will be used by multiple users say machine1 itself will be used by more than 20 users. I am aware that UWP apps are user account based not machine based and we are successful on installing for some users with the help of Intune's machines-based deployment.
I would like to know is there any way we can make it as a machine based rather than user account based. Basically, we need to install the application in more than 500 machines which are used by more than 2000 people. Basically, I should be able to install in any one user account then remaining other users also should be able to open that application.
In WPF there is an option like make it public or just for me, I want something like this.

Maui apps on Windows use WinUI 3 and the Windows App SDK. They can be deployed either as packaged files (similar to UWP) or unpackaged (similar to WPF).
The actual deployment strategy isn't specific to Maui, so likely the InTune folks can provide general purpose advice.

2024-01-04T05:11:10.02+00:00 My mistake about the UWP. I am packaging it as a UWP (.appx format) and sharing the same package with the Intune team to deploy as a LOB.
I am not aware about the unpackaged option. Can you brief me about it?
