App Volumes - Program settings lost on reboot

Hi,

We are using app volumes and we have a few packages which need to be licensed when deployed to the user. Also we point the programs to the data post assignment.

Once we restart the desktop the activation info and data directories reset back to pre assignment.

We are already redirecting the appdata (roaming) using persona management.

Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

Thanks.

Rob.

Could you please be a bit more specific on your issue?

Do you mean you would like to record license settings within the appstack for the application?

If this information is written into the Appdata folder than it won't work as an Appstack doesn't record this information. You can either copy the information into the profile using Windows policies or use the startup.bat file in the appstack (if you attach the disk to a machine that doesn't jave appvolumes installed you can see it) to copy the information.

Appvolumes is not capable of using the USERAPPDATA variable (for lack of a better term i just call it like this) that APPV uses to set user specific settings into an application.
