Application Manager Logo

Application Manager users can now upload and deploy their own custom applications. Whether it be an in-house developed application or an application download locked behind a login page, you can now take advantage of Application Manager’s easy to set up deployment processes to package and deploy these apps.
Minimum version: 5.9.2502

Right Click Tools logo in black font

Right Click Tools Browser Extension for Google Chrome

The Right Click Tools browser extension is now available to be added to your Google Chrome browser from the Chrome webstore. This browser extension works for both the Enterprise and Community editions of Right Click Tools, bringing you the same Right Click Tools actions you know and love to the Microsoft Intune Admin Center and beyond!

To get started:

Run Right Click Tools on a Device With No ConfigMgr Console

Users can now install Right Click Tools and the browser extension on a device without the ConfigMgr console installed and take Right Click Tools actions from the Intune Admin Center. Previously, the ConfigMgr console was required to be installed on all devices that would run actions via the browser extension.
Minimum Version: 5.9.2503

Recast Management Server: Service Connection Synchronization

The Recast Management Server now retrieves both user and device data from ConfigMgr and Active Directory service connections on a sync schedule. Those who apply several limiting rules (formerly ‘scopes’) for routes or users will see the greatest performance improvements when running Right Click Tools actions.
Minimum version: 5.9.2502
