While trying to push MSI's in certain devices through the EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement CSP
I am getting the error:

EnterpriseDesktopAppManagement CSP: Unable to start application content download. MSI Product Code: {103F4A09-1552-4B48-986A-AEF595B7E58C}, User SID: (S-0-0-00-0000000000-0000000000-000000000-000), Result: (The service cannot be started because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.).

This only happens with certain devices, should i ensure any services are running seperately for this?

    You should wrap MSI into Win32 app and create cmd or ps1 script to install it. That would be the best approach.

    Hello Anandu,

    Sorry that you are facing this. Here are some troubleshooting steps that you could follow,

    1. Ensure that the Windows Installer(msiserver) is present and running on the affected devices.
    2. Check the following registry path for additional information related to the MSI deployment: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EnterpriseDesktopAPPManagement\S-0-0-00-0000000000-00000000000-0000000000-00\MSI<MSIProductID>
    3. Since the failure is occurring during the download phase, if a BITS job ID is present in the registry, you can query its status using bitsadmin/list cmd. Refer to: bitsadmin list | Microsoft Learn
    4. Examine the IME logs on the device for any related errors or warnings - C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\Logs
    5. Additional, generic troubleshooting steps for Intune app installation issues are available here: Troubleshooting app installation issues with Intune - Intune | Microsoft Learn

    Hope this helps!
