The process to deploy applications to Windows SE devices via Microsoft Intune, is the same used for non-SE devices.
However, on Windows SE devices, apps may successfully install, but they need validation to be certain that they are functional.

The following table details the applications types that can be deployed via Intune, and considerations about the installation on Windows SE:

Installer/App type Installer extensions Install methods via Intune Notes
Universal Windows Platform (UWP) .appx
.appxbundle
.msix
  • For public apps (apps publicly available from an independent software vendor) use the integration with Microsoft Store (Windows Package Manager)
  • Private apps (internal line-of-business apps) are currently unsupported
You must write WDAC supplemental policies.
Win32 .exe
.msi
There are known limitations that might prevent a specific app from being installed. For more information, see validate applications.
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) .msix

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 will have their minimum requirements met, and ensure that apps which were previously blocked from installing or running are no longer unintentionally being provisioned once the managed installer policies are introduced.

Win32 apps

Win32 apps are installed from Intune via an .intunewin package created by the IntuneWinAppUtil command line tool.
Once the package is created, it can be uploaded to Intune and deployed to devices.

For more information, see:

UWP apps

UWP apps use two primary flows for installation:

PWA apps

If you are trying to install a PWA via Intune, you can do so with the WebAppInstallForceList Microsoft Edge policy. This does not require writing an additional supplemental policy for the app to be installed.

Store apps

Store app (new)

UWP apps deployed through Intune via Apps > Microsoft Store (new) are currently not supported.

Win32 apps can be deployed through this flow, but are subject to the known limitations of managed installers.
