Data Redirection Beginning with Windows Vista, standard users have restricted access to certain files, folders, and registry keys. When an application is trying to write to these locations, it gets redirected to somewhere else. Most of the time this is transparent to both users and application developers, but sometimes it is not. When the redirection is not transparent, it can cause user confusion and application compatibility issues. <br/> This unit will help you understand what UAC Data Redirection is, and how to solve compatibility issues related to this feature. Hands-On Labs Data Redirection - Managed In this lab, you will experience first hand the effects of UAC virtualization in a .NET application and will walk through the steps to solve the problem. You will learn how to diagnose a file redirection problem and you will learn how to workaround it by adding a UAC manifest to the application, and use the Application Data (ProgramData) folder. Data Redirection - Native In this lab, you will experience first hand the effects of UAC virtualization and will walk through the steps to solve the problem in a native Windows application. You will learn diagnose a file redirection problem and you will learn how to workaround it by adding a UAC manifest to the application, and use the Application Data (ProgramData) folder.
