THere are several options for this:
- Purchase Intune Suite license and start using brand new Intune feature Application Management, which costs 3€/user/month.
- Learn to utilize winget.exe and distribute its commands to update apps. Currently this will not work during autopilot, but should work to on-field computers fine. I see that it still has some minior bugs.
- Configure policies or registery keys that applications would update itself. With internet browser it is easy, with other apps not so easy.
- Evaluate 3rd party solutions for app patching.
