It must be installed on the machine, but it is set as a user installation.

When I load the MSI installer, it is unintentionally set to User and grayed out in the portal. It should be System, so you need the option to ignore it.

+1. I have a "user-context" MSI that installs to Program Files... Works fine for users with local admin, but that's what we're trying to avoid by using Intune.

Have you tried setting permissions to the folder to allow users access to that directory?

So sounds like there's a need for an "override detected installation method" option and you each have a slightly different use-case.
Additionally, @pl4nty's issue sounds more like the MSI is not written for per-user installations and may need some customization to properly work. whether that be via changing permissions or some other means.

@suprnova74 I believe overriding the detected install method was what I did, via detection.xml. Modifying the MSI itself would have been too time-consuming if an update was required.
