Release Notes for App-V for Windows 10 version 1703 and later

  • מאמר

Applies to:

  • Windows 10
  • Windows 11

The following are known issues and workarounds for Application Virtualization (App-V) running on Windows 10 version 1703 and later

  • Problem: Unable to manually create a system-owned folder needed for the set-AppVClientConfiguration PowerShell cmdlet when using the PackageInstallationRoot, IntegrationRootUser, or IntegrationRootGlobal parameters.

    Workaround: Don't create this file manually, instead let the Add-AppVClientPackage cmdlet auto-generate it.

  • Problem: Failure to update an App-V package from App-V 5.x to the latest in-box version, by using the PowerShell sequencing commands.

    Workaround: Make sure you have the complete App-V package or the MSI file from the original app.

  • Problem: Unable to modify the locale for auto-sequencing.

    Workaround: Open the C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Microsoft Application Virtualization\AutoSequencer\Unattend_Sequencer_User_Setup_Template.xml file and include the language code for your locale. For example, if you wanted Spanish (Spain), you'd use: es-ES.

  • Problem: Filetype and protocol handlers aren't registering properly with the Google Chrome browser, causing you to not see App-V packages as an option for default apps from the Settings > Apps> Default Apps area.

    Workaround: The recommended workaround is to add the following code to the AppXManifest.xml file, underneath the <appv:Extensions> tag:

    <appv:Extension Category="AppV.URLProtocol">
    <appv:URLProtocol>
        <appv:Name>ftp</appv:Name>

            <appv:DefaultIcon>[{ProgramFilesX86}]\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe,0</appv:DefaultIcon>
