Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM) and Microsoft Intune use Detection Rules to determine the presence of Applications & Win32 Apps. The detection rules ensure that application installations only begin to run if the application is not already installed on the device. This article will serve as an informative guide and give you a clear understanding of how to create an updated custom detection script for each new version of EasyMP Network Projection using PowerShell.
How to Create a Custom Detection Script for EasyMP Network Projection
EasyMP Network Projection (File Detection Method)
- Install the version of EasyMP Network Projection you want to deploy on a test box or VM
- Check out the following posts for further details
- Open Windows PowerShell ISE by Right-Clicking on Windows PowerShell ISE and selecting Run as Administrator
- Copy the following code into the Windows PowerShell ISE
## Check for EasyMP Network Projection (File Detection Method)
$EasyMPExe = (Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\Program Files\EPSON Projector\EasyMP Network Projection V2\EMP_NSC.exe","C:\Program Files (x86)\EPSON Projector\EasyMP Network Projection V2\EMP_NSC.exe" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)
$EasyMPExe.FullName
$EasyMPPath = $($EasyMPExe.FullName).Replace("C:\Program Files\","").Replace("C:\Program Files (x86)\","")
$FileVersion = (Get-Item -Path "$($EasyMPExe.FullName)" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersionRaw
## Create Text File with EasyMP Network Projection File Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\EasyMP_Network_Projection_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If([String](Get-Item -Path `"`$Env:ProgramFiles\$EasyMPPath`",`"`${Env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\$EasyMPPath`" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersionRaw -ge `"$FileVersion`"){"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Write-Host `"Installed`""
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Exit 0"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "else {"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Exit 1"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Invoke-Item $FilePath
- Click Run Script (F5)
- A text file will open with the EasyMP Network Projection Detection Method script required to detect the current version of EasyMP Network Projection that is installed on the device you are running the script from.
Example:
If([String](Get-Item -Path "$Env:ProgramFiles\EPSON Projector\EasyMP Network Projection V2\EMP_NSC.exe","${Env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\EPSON Projector\EasyMP Network Projection V2\EMP_NSC.exe" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersionRaw -ge "2.8.6.0"){
Write-Host "Installed"
Exit 0
}
else {
Exit 1
}
- Copy the EasyMP Network Projection Detection Method script content into the Custom Detection Rules (Script)
- Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM)
- Microsoft Intune
EasyMP Network Projection (Registry Detection Method)
- Install the version of EasyMP Network Projection you want to deploy on a test box or VM
- Check out the following posts for further details
- Open Windows PowerShell ISE by Right-Clicking on Windows PowerShell ISE and selecting Run as Administrator
- Copy the following code into the Windows PowerShell ISE
## Check for EasyMP Network Projection (Registry Detection Method)
$EasyMP = Get-ChildItem -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall","HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" | Get-ItemProperty | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -match 'EasyMP Network Projection' } | Select-Object -Property DisplayName, DisplayVersion, PSChildName
$EasyMP.DisplayVersion
$EasyMP.PSChildName
## Create Text File with EasyMP Network Projection Registry Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\EasyMP_Network_Projection_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If([Version](Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($EasyMP.PSChildName)','HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($EasyMP.PSChildName)' -Name DisplayVersion -ea SilentlyContinue) -ge '$($EasyMP.DisplayVersion)') {"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Write-Host `"Installed`""
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Exit 0"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "else {"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Exit 1"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Invoke-Item $FilePath
- Click Run Script (F5)
- A text file will open with the EasyMP Network Projection Detection Method script required to detect the current version of EasyMP Network Projection that is installed on the device you are running the script from.
Example:
If([Version](Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{4A515955-A3D4-4FE6-98C0-E7987FF3279A}','HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{4A515955-A3D4-4FE6-98C0-E7987FF3279A}' -Name DisplayVersion -ea SilentlyContinue) -ge '2.8.6.0') {
Write-Host "Installed"
Exit 0
}
else {
Exit 1
}
- Copy the EasyMP Network Projection Detection Method script content into the Custom Detection Rules (Script)
- Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM)
- Microsoft Intune
