Intunewin Build and Extract: a tool to build or extract Intunewin (new version)

In this post I will show you an application I created allowing you to build an Intune win32 application (Intunewin) or extract content from an existing intunewin.

What's new ?

In 2020, I published the first version of the tool.

I added a Config tab allowing you to set both intunewin, and extract folders.

This way you can use them for later use.

Next time you run the tool and click on browse for intunewin, it will automatically open the folder set in the Config tab.

Get the tool

Click on the GitHub picture below to get the tool.

How to install it ?

To install it, proceed as below:

1. Run the file Install_tool.ps1 in user context

2. A shortcut will be created on your desktop

How it works ?

To create the intunewin package I used the known solution from MS, see here.

To extract the content of an intunewin, I used the solution created by Olivier Kieselbach, see here.

How it looks like ?

The tool is divided in two parts:

- Build: Part to create the intunewin package

- Extract: Part to extract content from an intunewin

- Config: configure path for intunewin and extract folder in order to use them later
