Windows 10: Deploy the Microsoft Photo application

Hello,

We want to deploy the Microsoft Photo application on many Windows computers using SCCM or GPO.
How can we recover the sources? What is the command line to install the product and choose the default application in the settings menu.

Thanks for your help
