UEM 9 capturing Hidden files

I have Teradata Wallet 15.10.10 Thinapped (using 5.22/ Win7 64bit) and having a bit of difficulty picking up the files that Wallet uses.

I don't have a ton of experience with Teradata Wallet, but it looks like it saves a hidden/encrypted file to %appdata%\Microsoft\credentials

Can UEM capture and save this data?

What I've done so far

  • I've "enabled" the Thinapp option within UEM
  • set the above referenced forlder to "merged" so the data is written to the c:\ drive and not the Thinapp sandbox.

Any help would be appreciated

Hi piratefan​,

With UEM's ThinApp support there is no need to tweak the package's file system virtualization settings. What happens if you leave the package settings as is, and add <AppData>\Microsoft\Credentials to your Teradata Flex config file?

Please also note, with ThinApp support, you should also set the virtual executable in UEM, not the ThinApp executable itself.

If you configure <AppData>\Microsoft\Credentials in the flex config file, like UEMdev mentioned, it should be working fine.

thank you.

Yes, I have "tdwallet.exe" listed as the DirectFlex executable

I'm going start my testing scenarios over .  I'll report my findings.  I'm glad to hear that even if the file is hidden/encrypted UEM should still be able to capture the data.
