WinTuner GUI

A graphical interface for WinTuner — package Winget apps as Win32 apps and deploy them to Microsoft Intune, without writing a single command.

Features

• WinTuner detection — detects whether the WinTuner module is installed at startup and offers to install it automatically
• Winget search — search the Winget catalog directly from the GUI
• Package creation — build Intune or Winget packages with one click
• Deploy to Intune — deploy built packages to your tenant
• Auto update — optionally enable AutoUpdate on a deployed app after deployment
• Connection status — clear visual indicator (green/red) showing tenant connection state
• Activity log — timestamped log of all actions and output

Requirements

Requirement	Version
PowerShell	7.4 or higher
WinTuner module	latest (Install-Module WinTuner)
Microsoft Intune	Admin account with DeviceManagementApps permissions
OS	Windows 10 / 11

Getting started

1. Install PowerShell 7.4+

Download from aka.ms/powershell if not already installed.

2. Download the script

git clone https://github.com/nickhoog/wintunergui.git

Or download wintuner_gui.ps1 directly.

3. Run the GUI

Right-click wintuner_gui.ps1 and choose Run with PowerShell, or:

pwsh -File wintuner_gui.ps1

4. Install WinTuner (first run)

On first launch the GUI checks whether the WinTuner module is present. If not, it will ask whether to install it automatically via Install-Module.

You can also install it manually:

Install-Module WinTuner -Scope CurrentUser

Workflow

1. Enter admin UPN  →  Import module  →  Connect tenant
2. Search for a Winget package  →  select it  →  Create package
3. Select the built package from the deploy list  →  Deploy

Security notes

• No credentials are stored. Authentication is handled entirely by the WinTuner module and Azure/Intune device flows.
• Admin access required. A valid Intune admin account (UPN) is needed to connect. The account must have DeviceManagementApps.ReadWrite.All permissions.
• Local execution only. This script runs locally on your machine and communicates with the Intune Graph API through the WinTuner module. No data is sent to any third party.
• Execution policy. You may need to allow script execution:

  Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
