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 IObit Driver Booster using PowerShell.
How to Create a Custom Detection Script for IObit Driver Booster
IObit Driver Booster (File Detection Method)
- Install the version of IObit Driver Booster 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 IObit Driver Booster (File Detection Method)
$DriverBoosterExe = (Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\Program Files\IObit\Driver Booster\*\DriverBooster.exe","C:\Program Files (x86)\IObit\Driver Booster\*\DriverBooster.exe" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)
$DriverBoosterExe.FullName
$DriverBoosterPath = $($DriverBoosterExe.FullName).Replace("C:\Program Files\","").Replace("C:\Program Files (x86)\","")
$FileVersion = (Get-Item -Path "$($DriverBoosterExe.FullName)" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersion
## Create Text File with IObit Driver Booster File Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\IObit_Driver_Booster_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If([String](Get-Item -Path `"`$Env:ProgramFiles\$DriverBoosterPath`",`"`${Env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\$DriverBoosterPath`" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersion -ge `"$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 $FilePath
- Click Run Script (F5)
- A text file will open with the IObit Driver Booster Detection Method script required to detect the current version of IObit Driver Booster that is installed on the device you are running the script from.
Example:
If([String](Get-Item -Path "$Env:ProgramFiles\IObit\Driver Booster\11.1.0\DriverBooster.exe","${Env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\IObit\Driver Booster\11.1.0\DriverBooster.exe" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersion -ge "11.1.0.26"){
Write-Host "Installed"
Exit 0
}
else {
Exit 1
}
- Copy the IObit Driver Booster Detection Method script content into the Custom Detection Rules (Script)
- Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM)
- Microsoft Intune
IObit Driver Booster (Registry Detection Method)
- Install the version of IObit Driver Booster 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 IObit Driver Booster (Registry Detection Method)
$DriverBooster = Get-ChildItem -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall","HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" | Get-ItemProperty | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -match 'Driver Booster' } | Select-Object -Property DisplayName, DisplayVersion, PSChildName
$DriverBooster.DisplayVersion
$DriverBooster.PSChildName
## Create Text File with IObit Driver Booster Registry Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\IObit_Driver_Booster_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If([Version](Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($DriverBooster.PSChildName)','HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($DriverBooster.PSChildName)' -Name DisplayVersion -ea SilentlyContinue) -ge '$($DriverBooster.DisplayVersion)') {"
Add-Content -Path "$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 IObit Driver Booster Detection Method script required to detect the current version of IObit Driver Booster that is installed on the device you are running the script from.
Example:
If([Version](Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Driver Booster_is1','HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Driver Booster_is1' -Name DisplayVersion -ea SilentlyContinue) -ge '11.1.0') {
Write-Host "Installed"
Exit 0
}
else {
Exit 1
}
- Copy the IObit Driver Booster Detection Method script content into the Custom Detection Rules (Script)
- Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM)
- Microsoft Intune
