Welcome to the comprehensive guide on deploying HYAS Protect Agent Software for Windows using

Microsoft Intune. In this document, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of efficiently and

securely mass-deploying the HYAS Protect Agent Software for Windows and related configurations across

your Windows devices by harnessing the powerful capabilities of Microsoft Intune.

Deploying the HYAS Protect Agent

  1. Download the HYAS Protect Agent for Windows from the UI by navigating to Settings >

    HYAS Protect Agent > Install > Protect Agent x.x.x, Windows 64-bit

x.x.x will be replaced with the version

  1. Create the following folder structure. Copy the .msi file into the “Source” folder (the folder should

    only contain this .msi file).

  2. Create an empty “Intune” folder for the output.

  3. Convert the Win32 app content:

    1. Use the Microsoft Win32 Content Prep Tool to preprocess Windows classic (Win32) apps. The tool

      converts application installation files into the .intunewin format, which will be uploaded to the

      Microsoft Intune admin center.

      MsiProductCode element.
