I might cover the steps to deploy the script in upcoming post. And if you are thinking of using SCCM to do this, yes you can deploy this script using SCCM.
Using this script you can perform a clean up of teams installation. Thankfully there is a Microsoft Teams deployment cleanup script available for download. Furthermore you have to delete directory recursively under %localappdata%\Microsoft\Teams. To get this sorted, you need to uninstall Teams App installed for every user profile. This is because if the msi installer finds Teams app installed in the appdata folder, it will simply skip the install process for that user. If you had deployed Microsoft Teams earlier and uninstalled it, you cannot simply deploy it again using MSI installer. Whenever a new user signs in, Teams will be installed and auto-started. When you install Microsoft Teams, the installer is placed in Program Files.When you specify this, the teams won’t auto launch for users. With msi deployment you can add OPTIONS=”noAutoStart=true”. When you deploy teams, it will auto launch for all users who sign in on that machine.If there is an update available, the update process begins after the users sign-in.You cannot control or manage Teams updates.This is because the client will auto update when it detects a new version is available from the service. MSI installers can be used to deploy Teams, but not to deploy updates.You can either use Group Policy, SCCM, or even third-party tools to deploy Teams. With msi installers, you can now deploy Microsoft teams to systems. With executable installer, you had to deploy the teams to users and not devices. One change that I noticed is the way the teams app is deployed. I wanted to test how the deployment works when using MSI installers. But the good news is that for Microsoft Teams deployment using SCCM, MSI installers are available for download. In addition to that, SCCM can pick up install, uninstall commands and detection method as well. I prefer msi installers overs executable as SCCM can read info out of msi file. It is worth checking out the hardware and software requirements for Teams app before you deploy. While the steps mentioned in that post are still relevant for deployment, I was waiting for MSI installers. Which means there were no MSI installers for teams. At that time the Microsoft Teams installers were released as executable files. An year ago, I had published a post on deploying Microsoft teams using SCCM. In this post we will be looking at Microsoft Teams deployment using SCCM.
