1 year ago I love this idea! Indeed, setting detection rules can be a big challenge, especially when it comes to inconsistent version numbers from different vendors.
One approach to this problem could be to have the installer write the currently detected version value of the downloaded software to the system registry. This way, you can verify that the correct version is installed by checking the version number in the detection script. It is also necessary to check the presence of the required files in the application directory. For example, in the case of 7-Zip, you can check if "C:\Programs\7-Zip\7zFM.exe" is present.
These checks can ensure that the correct version of the software is installed.
Thanks to all contributors of this great script that eases the life of a terminal server admin a lot!
I'm not sure if you ever thought about an extension to finally support an option to export the resulting installer wrapped as a Win32 app (.intunewin) that can be used for Microsoft Endpoint Manager/Intune?
Prepare Win32 app content for upload
Add, assign, and monitor a Win32 app in Microsoft Intune
App creation in Intune can also be automated.
Create win32LobApp
Especially Windows 365 would benefit from this as it integrates fully with Intune app management.
