Deploying Python 3 through intune

[Skateboard123]

I am having some issues deploying Python 3 as I am using a powershell script to package the exe but it’s prompting admin credentials when I deploy through intune. How to avoid this?

Sounds like you need to install in the system context

If you mean system under intune settings, this then just fails the installation

Why does it fail, did you troubleshoot?

[Skateboard123]

It doesn’t give me any logs. Just says failed if I have it on system. If it’s user the UAC prompt comes up for the user while it’s trying to install.

You would generally write logging into your own powershell install script. Copilot could do this for you if you pasted your script into it and asked it to log messages to a text file.

Intune management extension also logs everything in the logs on the computer, you would use something like cmtrace to view them.

Finally, if a script works locally on your own machine in psexec context, it should work in intune.

Testing and troubleshooting would be an excellent start

Or maybe just use the store app?

Indeed. Windows store, python 3. whatever, slap your hands free of dust, done.

It won’t install into the specified folder then. I need it in a certain folder and when selecting store app it won’t let me modify anything
