Question

You are packaging an internal reporting tool as a Win32 app (.intunewin) for deployment to Windows 11 devices via Intune. The installer places ReportTool.exe (version 4.2.1.0) in C:\Program Files\Contoso\ReportTool. You plan to release incremental updates in the future using supersedence. You must configure a detection rule that reports the app as installed only when the deployed version or a newer one is present, without hard-coding a single exact version string. Which detection rule configuration should you use?
