InstallAware

Hi Support,

I have a question regarding SCCM deployment of an MSI that is created in InstallAware 18 via the group policy tab. I have a bunch of shortcuts that are created when you install the application normally (via an uncompressed exe for example) but when you do an SCCM silent/stealthy deployment with an MSI they aren't created. Is there something I'm missing to get these to show?

Dear Simon,

I may suggest you to have a look at the following topics;

NOTE! It is possible to force the "ALLUSERS" pre-defined variable as TRUE, executing the MSI file from command line as follow;
> msiexec.exe /i <msi-package> CMDLINE="ALLUSERS=TRUE"

Alternatively, it is possible to use the IA Group Policy Wizard tool to embed the above command line with the MSI package.
In this case enter "ALLUSERS=TRUE" (without quotes) in the "Command Line parameter" filed of the IA Group Policy Wizard tool (while converting your setup.exe to MSI).

Hope this helps you.

Regards.
