Release Notes

Additional App-V 4.x and 5.0 Package Properties

Automated Application Converter has added additional package properties that are specific to the

App-V format, including:

• Primary Application Directory Property

• Expand App-V Package Property

Primary Application Directory Property

You can use the Primary Application Directory property to specify the installation location for App-V

4.x or 5.x packages. Enter one of the following:

• App-V 5.x conversions using the Sequencer—Specify the absolute folder path to the expected

main installation location of the package to be converted. If no value is specified, then the App-V 5.0

package will be created with all files in the virtual file system (VFS) folder.

Important • When you use the App-V 5.x with Sequencer option, it is highly recommended that

you enter a value for the Primary Application Directory property. If you do not, then all of the

converted files will end up in the virtual file system (VFS) folder.

• App-V 4.x or 5.x conversions using AdminStudio—Specify the main installation directory

which will be used to set up the root/mount folder mapping.

For example, for Yahoo Messenger, AdminStudio automatically detects

C:\Program Files\Yahoo!

as the primary installation directory. However, you may prefer that the primary installation directory

C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger, because this directory is more correct for Messenger.

In this case, you can enter this new path in the Primary Application Directory property field, and

it will be honored by the AdminStudio converter as long as this path exists in the Windows Installer

package. If it does not exist, then AdminStudio will fall back to use the directory it found during

automatic detection.

Important • When using the App-V 4.x/5.x with AdminStudio package creation options, this field is

optional.

Expand App-V Package Property

You can use the Expand App-V Package property to expand an existing App-V 5.x package on the

system before performing the sequencing. This is useful for specifying middleware and dependency

App-V packages such as Java runtime.

Note • The Expand App-V Package option is only available when App-V 5.x with Sequencer is

chosen as the Package Creation method.
