Deploy Tropy to Microsoft Intune
The Tropy Developers and ContributorsWindowsversion 1.17.3, 21 January 2026
Tropy is in the PatchBee catalog as a Windows app from The Tropy Developers and Contributors, synced from the Windows Package Manager community repository (winget). Pick it in the App Library and PatchBee writes the deployment plan below, builds the package, publishes it to your Intune tenant and assigns it to the Entra groups you choose. New versions then follow through your update rings.
The plan PatchBee writes
Tropy as an Intune app
The standard form for a EXE installer (x64, per user). The real plan is generated from the installer when you package, and shown in full before anything is published; every field can be changed.
- Intune app type
- Windows app (Win32), .intunewin
- Install
- "Tropy.exe" --silent
- Uninstall
- Uninstall string of tropy
- Detection
- Registry: the app's uninstall key. Uninstall key tropy, DisplayVersion 1.17.3 or newer.
- Requirements
- x86 (32-bit), x64, ARM64 · per user
Installers in version 1.17.3
| Architecture | Type | Scope | Hash |
|---|---|---|---|
| x86 (32-bit) | EXE installer | per user | SHA-256 published |
| x64 | EXE installer | per user | SHA-256 published |
| ARM64 | EXE installer | per user | SHA-256 published |
PatchBee downloads the installer from the publisher's own URL and verifies its SHA-256 against the catalog before packaging. "None published" means the source carries no hash for this download, so that check has nothing to compare against; packaging still works.
Silent install switches
Recorded for Tropy in its winget manifest. PatchBee uses them as the installer's unattended switches, so the package installs without a click.
- Silent
- --silent
About Tropy
Tropy is free open-source software that allows you to organize and describe photographs of research material.
Tropy thinks the way you do: like a researcher. Say goodbye to IMG_5261.JPG and IMG_5262.JPG, and say hello to your sources.
Tropy helps you contextualize artifacts and their photos by capturing your own subject expertise. A friendly editing interface allows customized templates that fit your research like a glove.
Tropy understands that every researcher is different and that every project has its own demands. Break free from the logic of the physical archive and use tags and lists to organize your research items according to your needs.
Tropy’s beautiful annotation tools allow you to transcribe documents, select image details, and manipulate photographs to get the clearest view of your sources.

How this becomes an app in your tenant
Sign in with your Microsoft work account and connect your Intune tenant once. Find Tropy in the App Library, open its plan (the commands, detection rule and requirements above, editable) and publish: PatchBee downloads and verifies the installer, builds the package, creates the Intune app and assigns your groups. When The Tropy Developers and Contributors ships a new version, PatchBee detects it and rolls it out through your rings, with supersedence and rollback.

Catalog data as of 11 October 2026, from the Windows Package Manager community repository (winget). The product re-reads the source every night and plans against the live catalog, so the version here may already be one behind. Nothing is published to a tenant without an administrator approving the plan.
