You would need to either write a transform to make that property modification or modify the MSI package directly with a tool like ORCA. There is no way to pass property options through GPSI.

Just remove the software install and re-create it under computer configuration. You should be able to pass the ALLUSERS=1 property when you recreate the package. If memory serves me, you can't modify the arguments after the package has already been created.

Did you install it per-user? IF so, did you select to install at first logon in the Software Installation UI?

I always make sure and use the ALLUSERS=1 argument to ensure that scenario doesn't happen.

Anyway I was having trouble before getting the GPO to apply because of a USERENV error in the Application Log, I removed Symantec A/V to resolve this error and now the GPO applies correctly. Now my problem is that even though the GPO applied and "Office Compatibility Pack" shows in add/remove programs, whenever I open a DOCX file I get prompted to do download the Compatibility Pack from Microsoft b/c its not installed. I have read that when you do an assigned software install it doesn't actually install the app, just preps it to install the first time you use it. Could this be where things are getting caught up, b/c I am not "using it" first correctly? Let me know what info you need to help troubleshoot.
