Description with steps to reproduce
Hi, apologies if this is the wrong place for this. I am deploying Musescore for a group of users with Intune, however the MSI shows as a user install. However this will never work as Admin credentials is required, making this a system install as the Musescore MSI installs for all users anyway.
To make this work, I had to apply the ALLUSERS=1 flag to the MSI and resave it through Orca. I think this flag should be added to the MSI installers in the future to allow deploying the app silently.
I believe this was the case for Musescore versions below 4.3, however I may be wrong.
Thanks
