I'm getting into app packaging and deployment using Intune, and I've got the basics down, like installing apps using PSADT. However, I'm a bit confused when it comes to updating apps. Specifically, when do I need to close an app before updating it, and when should I uninstall the previous version first? I've also noticed that some apps require a restart based on exit codes. If anyone has any resources or tutorials that could help clarify this process, I'd really appreciate it!

You should definitely check out Microsoft's official documentation and online tutorials. They've got some detailed guides that cover your questions about app updates and deployment scenarios quite thoroughly.
You can use supersedence for updates. Create a new Intunewin package for the updated version and mark the old version as superseded. That way, users can seamlessly transition to the new version without hassle.
But what if the app is open in the background, like Google Drive? Do I need to close it first to update?
