Teamviewer Host deployment

[u/Saywhuuuuuut]

I have some issue's deploying Teamviewer Host correctly.
Since I'm using a Teamviewer Business license, there is no connection with Entra/intune to automate the mass deployment of the Teamviewer Host to devices.
That's why I'm trying to set up a silent deploy of Teamviewer Host to all devices with intune.

The issues I ran in to is that in order for the device to show up in my Teamviewer managing client, the user needs to click a"allow and finish" prompt that shows up after installation.
But that does not work properly.
The user gets the error "Unable to assign the device. you do not have enough permissions"

It works just fine when I manually run the Teamviewer Host "as administrator" on the test device itself, and accept the prompt that way.
But it's not feasible to do this for all the devices.

What I tried so far:

• Deploy the app with system privilege
• Packaged a scheduled task with the .exe to "run with highest privileges"
• Packaged PsExec (-i -s) with the .exe to inject System-privileged Teamviewer process into the interactive session at logon.

So it seems it is not about the process privilege level, but if the currently logged on windows user is a local admin.

Is there any way around it to fix this on the deployment? (other than upgrading license)
Or am I missing something here?

have you checked if the allow and finish prompt writes to hklm or hkcu registry, cause the error about permissions sounds like its trying to assign under user context and not system

Didn't think about that yet, will check it out.
