Issue with App volumes 2.18.2 Writable Volume with UIA and Autodesk ACC Docs - Files not synced

The issue is that when a Writable Volume with UIA is applied to a user, the Autodesk ACC Docs doesn't work and the files are not synced locally and they are not able to reference the files into AutoCAD.

If I log into a VM without a writable volume, then Autodesk ACC Docs will work. We need a writable volume with UIA due to the amount of applications that we have.

I have tried excluding the folder by altering the snapvol.cfg file, which does work the first time, but then when I restart it breaks the Autodesk Desktop Connector, which is needed to run Autodesk products and to add a project for the ACC Docs to be cached locally.

Has anyone come across this before, or are there any suggestions on a way to resolve it?

I appreciate we are running a very old version of App Volumes.

I don't have a solution to this issue, but personally I wouldn't use App Volumes for heavy applications like Autodesk, Adobe etc. We have a bunch of such apps and we always keep them in the gold image and we use FSLogix for handling user profile. We always keep the usage of App Volumes minimal.
