  • Prepare the package necessary to create such application
    On Windows 10 machine v1607 or later, download the Microsoft Win32 Content Prep Tool.
    At some place on the disk create temporary working directory, put the downloaded tool inside (e.g. C:\breeze).
    Create source directory named source inside (C:\breeze\source).
    Rename the Breeze Agent distro file to the breeze-agent.exe and put it to the source directory (C:\breeze\source\breeze-agent.exe).
    Also, in the source directory create a new plain-text file in UTF-8 encoding named install.cmd (C:\breeze\source\install.cmd) and paste the following content into it:

    Code Block
    languagebash
    @echo off
    start /B /WAIT breeze-agent.exe -gm2
    if %errorlevel% NEQ 0 ( exit /b 1 )
    setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
    set etc=%ProgramFiles%\Breeze\etc
    if exist "!etc!" (
      set tags=!etc!\tags
      if not exist "!tags!" echo. 2>"!tags!"
      set str=preferred.descriptor=intune
      find /c "!str!" "!tags!" >NUL || echo:!str!>>"!tags!"
    ) else (
      exit /b 1
    )

    Start the command line and go to the working directory using command RC: && cd C:\Breeze.
    Create .intunewin package using the following command line:

    Code Block
    languagebash
    IntuneWinAppUtil.exe -c C:\breeze\source -o C:\breeze -s C:\breeze\source\breeze-agent.exe

    In the working directory should be package file (C:\breeze\breeze-agent.intunewin), which will be used in the next steps.
