If you already have created a lot of applications with many deployment types and forgot to check them to allow fallback it can be very time consuming to do this manually! Luckily we have PowerShell to help us with that.This script will loop through EVERY application you have and EVERY deployment type you have and try to set them to allow fallback.
It will only try to change those deployment types that are of the type .MSI or SCRIPT (hence the -MsiOrScriptInstaller switch). This can be changed by using other switches. For details on which one to use and how read about it on TechNet (opens in a new window/tab).
