I am pretty new to IT Administration and I think I have a pretty complicated request but I want to know if it is even possible through Intune. I have an application that I want to deploy and I think I would either need to package the application as a Win32 app or via a Powershell Script. I basically would need to download the zip from this website, extract the contents, open the WCX, silently pass through the prompts, and pin the app to the taskbar. Again I am not sure if this is even possible but this would save me a lot of trouble if there was an easy way to do this. Here is the link.

To download a file, use Invoke-WebRequest with the -OutFile parameter.
To Install a .wcx you use rundll like this:
rundll32.exe 'tsworkspace,WorkspaceSilentSetup' C:\Path\To\The.wcx (There's a whole wrapper script for that on the old technet script gallery)
It's impossible by design to pin things to users' task bar or start menu programmatically (well, you could script a bunch of hotkey presses and clicks, but don't).
