Frequently Asked Question

Our CICB-Windows software was designed as a portable Win32 application for your convenience, which you can deploy in many ways, such as Microsoft Intune. 

To deploy the CICB-Client client using Microsoft Intune, you can package it as a Win32 application and distribute it via Intune. Here are the steps:

1. Prepare the application files:
   Copy all CICB-Client files from a client machine into a single folder, including the executable and required support files. (All files needed for CICB-Client should already be in the CICB-Client folder.)
2. Use the Intune Win32 Content Preparation Tool:
   Microsoft provides the Intune Win32 Content Preparation Tool (IntuneWinAppUtil.exe) to package the application folder into .intunewin format.
   • Download and run IntuneWinAppUtil.exe.
   • Follow the prompts to specify the source folder (CICB-Client files) and the output folder.
   • The tool will generate a .intunewin file.
3. Add the application to Intune:
   • Log in to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center.
   • Navigate to Apps > All apps > Add.
   • Choose Windows app (Win32) as the app type.
   • Upload the previously generated .intunewin file.
   • Fill in application details such as name, description, and publisher.
   • In the Program section, specify the install and uninstall commands.
     • For portable software, the install command can be a script to copy files to the target directory, and the uninstall command can be a script to remove these files.
   • Configure application detection rules to ensure Intune verifies whether the app is successfully installed.
     • This can be based on file existence, registry entries, etc.
   • Set up requirements and return codes for the application.
   • Assign the app to the desired user or device groups.
4. Monitor deployment status:
   Use the Intune admin center to monitor the installation status of the application to ensure successful deployment.
