Technical Notes:
- This script will run on Windows 10 and 11.
- Admin permissions needed to run this script.
- An internet connection is required to download the Microsoft Teams MSI package.
- Based on the computer’s architecture, it will set the download url as https://aka.ms/teams32bitmsi for 32-bit or https://aka.ms/teams64bitmsi for 64-bit.
- The downloaded file is saved to the C:\temp directory with the filename “teams.msi”.
- The MSI installer is executed using the msiexec.exe command with specified arguments to perform a silent installation. This means there is no user interface or prompts, and no surprise device restarts.
