I realised there's more to the MSI than i thought as it would seem there are some DLLs that are being registered too. The MSI creates quite a few registry keys so you can't just copy the folder unfortunately.Saviour!!! Many thanks for this! I will try it out next week It's just not showing the "normal" interactive installer UI. When testing my MST make sure you uninstall any existing per-user installs of the Skype Meetings App beforehand.
The MST is attached to this post and the MSI can be downloaded via the following link should you need it again:Ĭode: Name: Skype for Business Web App Version Plug-inĭate last accessed: 01 May 2020, 00:00Ĭlass ID: įolder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\SkypeForBusinessPlugin\16.2.0.511 Note.
You can't use the ALLUSERS=1 parameter with SkypeMeetingsApp.msi so the solution I came up with was to create a transform file to change a few things in the MSI to force the app to install to the "Program Files (x86)" folder rather than local AppData. We don't install the Skype for Business app that's included with Microsoft Office. I had exactly the same issue yesterday when several of our staff had an online meeting with an LEA that required the dreadful Skype Meetings App. It would seem it's not possible to do and i'm hoping someone can correct me *fingers crossed*It's definitely possible. We run mandatory profiles which doesn't help the situation either. Is there a way to install the SkypeMeetingsApp.msi to ALL USERS rather than just to the local user profile as our users on the domain cannot install MSIs so we are unable to take conference calls from those who are wanting to meet with out staff. This is ok for a short period however i can see this becoming a pain later on.Īpparently MS don't have a "all users" version of the MSI either yet people are crying out for it - so i've read on forums. If the user opens IE11 and opens the meeting, the MSI will run and install however if they use Chrome, the MSI downloads but will not install so we are asking staff to use IE11.
I have managed to get the MSI to install without inputting any Office365 details. Unofficially we still have our old tenant sat dormant and syncing from OnPrem AD in the background however asking users to use their old details is just going to confuse matters. This is something the MAT haven't officially got as they have been concentrating on GSuite only and maybe something i need to bring to their attention - I'm wondering if this would work for the latest version of Chrome.
We have installed SfB as part of the Office 2019 Pro collection however our staff would need to login with their Office365 account.
