# Applications deployment considerations
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The process to deploy applications to Windows SE devices via Microsoft Intune is the same used for non-SE devices. Applications must be defined in Intune, and then assigned to the correct groups.\
|
|
However, on Windows SE devices, apps may successfully install, but they need validation to be certain that they're functional.
|
|
|
|
The following table provides an overview of the applications types that can be deployed to Windows devices via Intune, and considerations about the installation on Windows SE:
|
|
|
|
|**Installer/App type**|**Installer extensions**|**Available installation methods via Intune**|**Considerations for Windows 11 SE**|
|
|
|-|-|-|-|
|
|
|[Win32][WIN-1]|`.exe`<br>`.msi`|- Intune Management Extension (IME)<br> - Microsoft Store integration|⚠️ There are known limitations that might prevent an app to install or run.|
|
|
|[Universal Windows Platform (UWP)][WIN-2]|`.appx`<br>`.appxbundle`<br>`.msix`<br>|- For private apps: line-of-business (LOB) apps<br>- For public apps: Microsoft Store integration|⚠️ LOB apps require a supplemental policy.<br><br>⛔ It's currently unsupported to use the Microsoft Store to deploy UWP apps.|
|
|
|[Progressive Web Apps (PWAs)][EDGE-2] |`.msix`|- Settings catalog policies<br>- Microsoft Store integration|✅ Use settings catalog policies.<br><br>⛔ It's currently unsupported to use the Microsoft Store to deploy PWAs.|
|
|
|Web links| n/a |- Windows web links|✅ Web links are supported. |
|
|
|
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|
> Although you'll be able to install apps on Windows 11 SE devices via Intune, some apps may not perform well on these devices due those apps' minimum spec requirements.
|
|
> Before deploying apps, first check which apps will be targeting your Windows 11 SE devices, and ensure that they meet the requirements.
|
|
|
|
## Win32 apps
|
|
|
|
The addition of Win32 applications to Intune consists of repackaging the apps and defining the commands to silently install them. The process is described in the article [Add, assign, and monitor a Win32 app in Microsoft Intune][MEM-1].
|
|
|
|
There are known limitations that might prevent applications to install or execute. For more information, see the next section [validate applications](validate-apps.md).
|
|
|
|
## UWP apps
|
|
|
|
### Line of business apps
|
|
|
|
For private, line-of-business (LOB) UWP apps, [deploy as line-of-business apps][MEM-2]
|
|
|
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|
> UWP apps require the creation and deployment of supplemental policies. For more information, see the next section [validate applications](validate-apps.md).
|
|
|
|
### Microsoft Store apps
|
|
|
|
Public UWP apps available in the Microsoft Store aren't currently supported for Windows 11 SE.
|
|
|
|
## PWA apps
|
|
|
|
PWAs can be deployed using the [Force-installed web Apps][EDGE-1] option via [settings catalog policies][MEM-3].
|
|
|
|
PWAs available in the Microsoft Store aren't currently supported for Windows 11 SE.
|
|
|
|
## Web links
|
|
|
|
Web link can be deployed via Intune using [Windows web links][MEM-4], and will be available in the Start menu of the targeted devices.
|
|
|
|
## Section review
|
|
|
|
Before moving on to the next section, ensure that you've completed the following tasks:
|
|
|
|
> [!div class="checklist"]
|
|
> - `.intunewin` package created (for Win32 apps)
|
|
> - App uploaded via Intune (for Win32 and UWP LOB apps)
|
|
> - App assigned to the correct groups
|
|
|
|
## Next steps
|
|
|
|
Advance to the next article to learn how to validate the applications deployed to Windows 11 SE devices.
