| You must use App-V 5.0 SP2 Hotfix Package 5 or later to use this parameter. |
An administrator can publish a package to a specific user by specifying the optional –UserSID parameter with the Publish-AppvClientPackage cmdlet, where -UserSID represents the end user’s security identifier (SID).
To use this parameter:
You can run this cmdlet from the user or administrator session.
You must be logged in with administrative credentials to use the parameter.
The end user must be logged in.
You must provide the end user’s security identifier (SID).
Cmdlet: Publish-AppvClientPackage
Example: Publish-AppvClientPackage “ContosoApplication” -UserSID S-1-2-34-56789012-3456789012-345678901-2345
To add and publish a package
Use the following information to add a package to a computer and publish it to the user.
Cmdlet: Add-AppvClientPackage
Example: Add-AppvClientPackage \\path\to\appv\package.appv | Publish-AppvClientPackage
To unpublish an existing package
Use the following information to unpublish a package which has been entitled to a user but not remove the package from the computer.
Cmdlet: Unpublish-AppvClientPackage
Example: Unpublish-AppvClientPackage “ContosoApplication”
To unpublish a package for a specific user

| You must use App-V 5.0 SP2 Hotfix Package 5 or later to use this parameter. |
An administrator can unpublish a package for a specific user by using the optional –UserSID parameter with the Unpublish-AppvClientPackage cmdlet, where -UserSID represents the end user’s security identifier (SID).
To use this parameter:
You can run this cmdlet from the user or administrator session.
You must be logged in with administrative credentials to use the parameter.
The end user must be logged in.
You must provide the end user’s security identifier (SID).
Cmdlet: Unpublish-AppvClientPackage
Example: Unpublish-AppvClientPackage “ContosoApplication” -UserSID S-1-2-34-56789012-3456789012-345678901-2345

| App-V cmdlets have been assigned to variables for the previous examples for clarity only; assignment is not a requirement. Most cmdlets can be combined as displayed in To add and publish a package. For a detailed tutorial, see App-V 5.0 Client PowerShell Deep Dive. |
To enable only administrators to publish or unpublish packages
| Anm |
|---|
| This feature is supported starting in App-V 5.0 SP3. |
Use the following cmdlet and parameter to enable only administrators (not end users) to publish or unpublish packages:
Cmdlet |
Set-AppvClientConfiguration |
Parameter |
-RequirePublishAsAdmin Parameter values:
Example:: Set-AppvClientConfiguration –RequirePublishAsAdmin1 |
To use the App-V Management console to set this configuration, see How to Publish a Package by Using the Management Console.
Understanding pending packages (UserPending and GlobalPending)
Starting in App-V 5.0 SP2: If you run a PowerShell cmdlet that affects a package that is currently in use, the task that you are trying to perform is placed in a pending state. For example, if you try to publish a package when an application in that package is being used, and then run Get-AppvClientPackage, the pending status appears in the cmdlet output as follows:
| Cmdlet output item | Description |
|---|---|
UserPending |
Indicates whether the listed package has a pending task that is being applied to the user:
|
GlobalPending |
Indicates whether the listed package has a pending task that is being applied globally to the computer:
|
The pending task will run later, according to the following rules:
| Task type | Applicable rule |
|---|---|
User-based task, e.g., publishing a package to a user |
The pending task will be performed after the user logs off and then logs back on. |
Globally based task, e.g., enabling a connection group globally |
The pending task will be performed when the computer is shut down and then restarted. |
For more information about pending tasks, see Package upgrade improvements and pending tasks.
