WorkLink: Installing the UWP App for multiple Windows users
You can install UWP apps for all users with PowerShell, using a method called "provisioning". Provisioning an app causes it to be installed for the all current user profiles and each user profile that's subsequently created.
Here's how you can provision a UWP app using PowerShell:
- Open your browser and navigate to
Microsoft Store - Generation Project (v1.2.3) [by @rgadguard & mkuba50]
- Paste in the following link:
Get WorkLink by Scope AR from the Microsoft Store
- If this link changes, navigate to the Microsoft Store (Microsoft Apps ) and search for “Worklink by ScopeAR” and copy the link at the top of the page:
- If this link changes, navigate to the Microsoft Store (
- Change the pulldown to “Retail” and click the Checkmark button
- Scroll down and download the following two links by right-clicking and selecting “Save Link As…”
-
Put both files inside the same folder
-
Ensure that all other users on this computer are currently signed out
-
Open a PowerShell prompt with administrative privileges. You can do this by right-clicking the Start button, selecting "Windows PowerShell (Admin)".
-
Change to the directory where the package is located, for example:
cd C:\path\to\your\package. -
Provision the app using the
Add-AppxProvisionedPackagecommand. You'll need to specify the offline Windows image you want to service, the package path. (IMPORTANT: You want to use the APPXBUNDLE, not the APPX)
Here is an example of what the command looks like:
Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -SkipLicense -FolderPath .\your-package.AppxBundle
Note:
-
Replace
.\your-package.AppxBundlewith the path to your app package and the package file.
