Notepad++ on base image conflicts with appstack application

[RL390]

Hi all,

I am facing a strange issue, we put notepad++ v6.8.8 on base image (win7) with using config files in %appdata% ,  we also put M$ office 2010 std in an appstack.

Everything works fine until we update the M$ office appstack by adding a microsoft office proofing tool ( which is using to translate language text )

However, once we attached the updated appstack to base image, notepads++ prompts an issue , “Load langs.xml failed",  in fact it is a common error on notepads++ not bale to read the langs.xml in user profile , but it is no luck after i apply the workaround to replace langs.xml, the error still there.

Just tested all the components on a full clone, no error happens ..

i have no clue what;s going on...any one got similar issue on notepad++

Thanks!!

I would suggest putting notepad ++ in an appstack. Notepad++ must be having issues reading the lang.xml file through the appvolume filesystem driver.

Hi RL,

Try to update your office 2010 app stack with packaging machine which already contains notepad++ on it, please provide me feedback on it

regards.

[if above step did't work, then use your parent image as packaging machine and try to update your office 2010 app stack]
