      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am trying to ThinApp Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 on a Windows XP SP3 virtual machine.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Following VMware's suggested best practice, I have a shortcut on the VM's desktop to the Setup Capture program on the host computer, which is running Windows 7 Professional SP1.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have been able to ThinApp several applications so far but Office is giving me problems.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have run a prescan, installed and configured Office, and then go to run the postscan when I get an error that says "Could not create directory: \\cs13811\. . ." See the attached screen shot thinapp-error-1.png. When I click OK on that error window, I get a Could not execute window. See attached screenshot thinapp-error-2.png.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;After that, when I try to access the host Win 7 machine from the WinXP VM I am not allowed to do so. Only after I restart the Win 7 machine am I able to access it from the VM.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am running the trial version of ThinApp 4.6.1.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any ideas?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- Paul Weir&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;P.S. This is the full path on the host machine that ThinApp is failing to create:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class="MsoNormal"&gt;C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware&amp;nbsp; ThinApp\Captures\Microsoft Office Professional Plus&amp;nbsp; 2010\%ProgramFilesDir%\Microsoft Analysis Services\AS OLEDB\10\Resources&amp;nbsp; which does not meet the 256-character limit I have read about in&amp;nbsp; another forum thread.&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;Well, your path only has 161 chars with space, now considering the MAX_PATH is a limitation from Explorer and not from Win32 subsystem, I doubt it for the problem. still If it is MAX_PATH (256 char) problem than you can try installing ThinApp at c:\VM or similar small paths, you can also reduce the name of project to reduce it further.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Or you can run log monitor and generate logs for setup capture and snapshot.exe and see what is going wrong in the log files.&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;So, after I added the directory manualy as Cievo suggested and got the error the next time I started the setup capture, I tried capturing the application once more and everything worked! I'm sorry; I have no idea what the problem was. Thank you both for your help!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- Paul Weir&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
