I would be really interested to see how could you create a package with a Licensed program, let’s say it’s a How to create/discover the correct parameter to put the license key ☺️.

Great suggestion. You may have some publicly available application in mind that has a licensed option?

Great video! You mention that capturing the install should be done in VM. Can I also do it in Windows Sandbox, or would there be any restrictions or disadvantages by doing it that way?

[@MasterPackager]

Yes! You can do the repackaging on Windows Sandbox as well. There you will have even fewer noise files/registries captured. The only downside is that on Sandbox you cannot create snapshots. But for most of the cases that is not a downside. Let us know if you have more questions. :)

I have a Q. for serviceui.exe do you need both the 32/64 exe and how do you call it?

[@MasterPackager]

For 64bit OS, you will need the 64bit serviceui.exe. Here is good blog post that explains it: www.anoopcnair.com/use-serviceui-with-intune-to-bring-system-process-to-interactive-mode/
Let us know if you have more questions. :)
