Deploy TeXworks to Microsoft Intune
TeX Users GroupWindowsversion 0.6.11, 10 February 2026
TeXworks is in the PatchBee catalog as a Windows app from TeX Users Group, 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
TeXworks as an Intune app
The standard form for a Inno Setup (x86 (32-bit), per machine). The real plan is generated from the installer when you package, and shown in full before anything is published; every field can be changed.

Installers in version 0.6.11
| Architecture | Type | Scope | Hash |
|---|---|---|---|
| x86 (32-bit) | Inno Setup | per machine | 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 TeXworks in its winget manifest. PatchBee uses them as the installer's unattended switches, so the package installs without a click.
- Custom (always added)

About TeXworks
TeXworks is an environment for authoring TeX (LaTeX, ConTeXt, etc) documents, with a Unicode-based, TeX-aware editor, integrated PDF viewer, and a clean, simple interface accessible to casual and non-technical users.
TeXworks is inspired by Dick Koch's award-winning TeXShop program for Mac OS X, which has made quality typesetting through TeX accessible to a wider community of users, without a technical or intimidating face. The goal of TeXworks is to deliver a similarly integrated, easy-to-use environment for users on other platforms, especially GNU/Linux and Windows.
Among other things, TeXworks features an integrated PDF previewer, synchronization between the TeX files and the PDF output, and an extensible scripting interface.

How this becomes an app in your tenant
Sign in with your Microsoft work account and connect your Intune tenant once. Find TeXworks 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 TeX Users Group 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.
