    Edit properties as needed. Your options:

    • App name: The display name for the app, which appears in the Start menu on student devices.

    • Icon: Optionally, upload a PNG or JPG file to use as the app's icon.

    • Publisher: The name of the developer or company that distributed the app. This information appears in Company Portal.

    • Description: Describe the purpose of the app, or use the default description. The description appears in Company Portal for apps marked as available. For all other apps, the description is only visible to admins in Intune for Education.

    • Installation behavior: Your options:

      • System: Select this option to install the app for all supported users. You must select this option for devices enrolled via Microsoft Entra registration.

      • User: Select this option to install the app for the user that signs in to the device.

      Note

      For dual-purpose MSI apps, changes to this setting prevents app updates from completing, and prevents apps from uninstalling. This behavior will continue until you restore the value that was applied to the device at the time of its original installation.

  6. Select Save. After you save the app, you can view it in your inventory, under the Microsoft Store app (new) app type.

These apps are called Microsoft Store apps (legacy) throughout Intune for Education and Microsoft Intune, because they were purchased from Microsoft Store for Education, which is retired.
