EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement CSP
The EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement configuration service provider is used to handle enterprise desktop application management tasks, such as querying installed enterprise applications, installing applications, or removing applications.
Application installations can take some time to complete, hence they're done asynchronously. When the Exec command is completed, the client can send a generic alert to the management server with a status, whether it's a failure or success. For a SyncML example, see Alert example.
The following list shows the EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement configuration service provider nodes:
- ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement
- ./User/Vendor/MSFT/EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement/MSI/{ProductID}/DownloadInstall
Executes the download and installation of the application. In Windows 10, version 1703 service release, a new tag <DownloadFromAad>
was added to the <Enforcement>
section of the XML. The default value is 0 (don't send token). This tag is optional and needs to be set to 1 in case the server wants the download URL to get the AADUserToken.
Here's an example:
<Enforcement>
<CommandLine>/quiet</CommandLine>
<TimeOut>5</TimeOut>
<RetryCount>3</RetryCount>
<RetryInterval>5</RetryInterval>
<DownloadFromAad>1</DownloadFromAad>

How to determine which installation context to use for an MSI package
The following tables show how app targeting and MSI package type (per-user, per machine, or dual mode) are installed in the client.
For Intune standalone environment, the MSI package will determine the MSI execution context.
Target | Per-user MSI | Per-machine MSI | Dual mode MSI |
---|---|---|---|
User | Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
Install the MSI per-device LocURI contains a Device prefix, such as ./Device |
Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
System | Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
Install the MSI per-device LocURI contains a Device prefix, such as ./Device |
Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
The following table applies to Configuration Manager hybrid environment:
Target | Per-user MSI | Per-machine MSI | Dual mode MSI |
---|---|---|---|
User | Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
Install the MSI per-device LocURI contains a Device prefix, such as ./Device |
Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
System | Install the MSI per-user LocURI contains a User prefix, such as ./User |
Install the MSI per-device LocURI contains a Device prefix, such as ./Device |
Install the MSI per- system context LocURI contains a Device prefix, such as ./Device |
How to determine the package type from the MSI package
- ALLUSERS="" - per-user package type
- ALLUSERS=1 - per-machine package type
- ALLUSERS=2, MSIINSTALLPERUSER=1 - dual mode package type
Properties can be specified in the package, passed through the command line, modified by a transform, or (more commonly) selected through a user interface dialog.
