      <title>Cannot create subdirectory in a Merged isolation mode directory in the sandbox</title>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;If I try to create a subdirectory in a directory that only exists in the sandbox, the system returns "The system cannot find the path specified."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Creating a new file in the same directory works fine.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'll explain.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Let's say I have the following directory structure in the %Personal% directory of a captured application: "%Personal%/test1/test2"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If I build and execute the cmd.exe entry point, the directory structure is as expected; There is a test1 directory in the "My Documents" folder with one sub directory: "test2". Outside the sandbox these directories do not exist.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If I try to create a new subdirectory in the test1 (or test2) directory the system returns: "The system cannot find the path specified." and nothing happens. But if I create a new file in the same directory, the system creates the whole directory structure on the physical system, including the new file, as expected...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Can anyone help me solve this issue?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Regards,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thijs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Which ThinApp version are you using? I have some faint recollection that this got fixed recently.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi Anatoly,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I hope there's a reward for the 'worst written post of 2010 so far'...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But seriously; except for the ThinApp version, I think my post is pretty clear. There's no hypervisor or server involved. If you try what I explained you should be able to replicate the error. On any current Microsoft OS.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Judging from your questions, I get the feeling you don't really know what ThinApp is and before I start explaining what I mean by 'sandbox', I suggest you read the documentation to familiarize yourself with ThinApp terminology.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks for reading my post though.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Regards,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;  Thijs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just one question. You wrote "If I try to create a new subdirectory in the test1...". Have you created directory using that particular application? Have you tried to create virtualized cmd.exe and create directory using that virtualized cmd.exe?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you for answer,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Ondrej Zilinec - Cievo&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;...Good question is half of the answer...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi Cievo,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks for your reply.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yes. I tried to create a new directory both in that particular application (Which happened to be Microsoft Visual Studio 2008), and in the 'debugging' virtualized cmd.exe in the same container.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As you suggested, you can build a small virtualized test application to replicate the situation:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- start 'Setup Capture.exe'&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- start the 'prescan'&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- create a new directory in the 'My Documents' folder: 'My Documents\test1'&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- start the 'postscan'&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- Next...Next...Finish&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You should now have a new 'cmd.exe' application in the "VMware ThinApp\Captures\cmd\bin" directory.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Execute it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In the 'cmd' window that appears, go to your 'My Documents' directory. There should be a 'test1' directory which doesn't exist in your real 'My Documents' directory.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you try to create a new directory inside the 'test1' directory (with 'md test1\test2'), the system returns: 'The system cannot find the path specified.'&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Creating a new file with 'echo "test" &amp;gt; test1\file' works fine, and results in the 'test1' directory being created in your real 'My Documents' folder as expected after which creating subdirectories in the 'test1' directory also works. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Regards,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;  Thijs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
