Create a Custom Detection Script for Microsoft OneDrive (PowerShell)

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 Microsoft OneDrive using PowerShell.

How to Create a Custom Detection Script for Microsoft OneDrive

Microsoft OneDrive (File Detection Method)

Install the version of Microsoft OneDrive you want to deploy on a test box or VM

  - Microsoft OneDrive Install and Uninstall (PowerShell)
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 Microsoft OneDrive (File Detection Method)
$OneDriveExe = (Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive\OneDrive.exe","C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft OneDrive\OneDrive.exe","$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\OneDrive.exe" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)
$OneDriveExe.FullName
$FileVersion = (Get-Item -Path "$($OneDriveExe.FullName)" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersion

## Create Text File with Microsoft OneDrive File Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\OneDrive_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If([String](Get-Item -Path `"`$Env:ProgramFiles\Microsoft OneDrive\OneDrive.exe`",`"`${Env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\Microsoft OneDrive\OneDrive.exe`",`"`$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\OneDrive.exe`" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersion -ge `"$FileVersion`"){"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Write-Host `"Installed`""
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Invoke-Item $FilePath

Click Run Script (F5)
A text file will open with the Microsoft OneDrive Detection Method script required to detect the current version of Microsoft OneDrive that is installed on the device you are running the script from.

Example:

If([String](Get-Item -Path "$Env:ProgramFiles\Microsoft OneDrive\OneDrive.exe","${Env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\Microsoft OneDrive\OneDrive.exe","$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\OneDrive.exe" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).VersionInfo.FileVersion -ge "22.131.0619.0001"){
Write-Host "Installed"
}

## Check for Microsoft OneDrive (Registry Detection Method)
$OneDrive = Get-ChildItem -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall","HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall","HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" | Get-ItemProperty | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -like 'Microsoft OneDrive*' } | Select-Object -Property DisplayName, DisplayVersion, PSChildName
$OneDrive.DisplayVersion
$OneDrive.PSChildName

## Create Text File with Microsoft OneDrive Registry Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\OneDrive_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If([Version](Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($OneDrive.PSChildName)','HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($OneDrive.PSChildName)','HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\$($OneDrive.PSChildName)' -Name DisplayVersion -ea SilentlyContinue) -ge '$($OneDrive.DisplayVersion)') {"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Write-Host `"Installed`""
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Invoke-Item $FilePath

Click Run Script (F5)
A text file will open with the Microsoft OneDrive Detection Method script required to detect the current version of Microsoft OneDrive that is installed on the device you are running the script from.

Example:

If([Version](Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\OneDriveSetup.exe','HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\OneDriveSetup.exe','HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\OneDriveSetup.exe' -Name DisplayVersion -ea SilentlyContinue) -ge '22.131.0619.0001') {
Write-Host "Installed"
}
