Deploy Support Assist for Business PC through Group Policy

I created an MSI installer with the provided MST from techdirect. I am trying to install it through Group Policy by adding the MSI as an assigned package. I went into the advanced options and also added the transform file.

 

On the client system, SupportAssist is not being installed and when I check the EventViewer, I see the following error

I understand that I need to use the development key I had set while extracting SupportAssist MSI installer. But how to use that since GPO applications deployment does not allow additional parameters.

Its probably because this method doesnt apply the encryption key.
Let me know if you find a solution, I have the same issue.

To solve this you can add the DEPLOYMENTKEY in the .mst file with a tool called ORCA.

Dell is not talking about it, probably because it is not secure to do it this way.
