MD-102 Manage applications Practice Question
Your organization is migrating from on-premises SCCM to Microsoft Intune. You have a Win32 app that requires a custom script to run after installation. The app must be available to users in a remote office with limited internet connectivity. What should you use to deploy the app?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse Cloud Management Gateway (CMG) as an Intune feature, when it is actually an SCCM component, leading them to pick Option A despite the question explicitly stating a migration from SCCM to Intune.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Deploy the Win32 app via Intune with Delivery Optimization and peer caching enabled.
Delivery Optimization combined with peer caching allows devices in a remote office with limited internet connectivity to download the Win32 app from other peers on the same local network, reducing WAN bandwidth usage. Intune natively supports Win32 app deployment with this feature, and the custom script can be included as a post-installation detection or requirement script. This approach aligns with the migration from SCCM to Intune while addressing connectivity constraints.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Configure a cloud management gateway (CMG) to distribute the app.
Why it's wrong here
CMG is for SCCM, not Intune.
- ✗
Store the app in Azure Files and mount it on devices.
Why it's wrong here
Not a standard Intune deployment method.
- ✗
Use a PowerShell script deployed via Intune to download the app from a local file share.
Why it's wrong here
Scripts can be part of Win32 app; separate script download is unnecessary.
- ✓
Deploy the Win32 app via Intune with Delivery Optimization and peer caching enabled.
Why this is correct
This reduces internet bandwidth usage for remote offices.
