I have a user that has a lot of specific apps that she uses that the other docs don't. I want to take her out of the dedicated pool and put her in here own pool and I just have a few questions. The first one is, if I leave her in the current pool and install those apps on her persistent disk, will there be any issues with those apps once the pool is refreshed or recomposed? One app takes about an hour to install alone and I would't want to have to re install after every recompose. On that same subject, what is the best way to get a VM to a single user? Create a manual Pool? Any comments or suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

It will depend on the app if the install to the D:\ will behave gracefully, so the only way you'll know for sure is to test it out.
If the apps licensing allows it, can you just install it on the image and let the other users ignore it? Is ThinApp an option for those apps? Can you just create another image and keep them in a dedicated linked-clone setup so your management of the desktops is the same across both pools?
If you go the full clone desktop route, you're going to have to change the way you manage that desktop's updates and modifications... mimicking how you'd manage physical PCs.
In a recompose operation Persistent disk is removed C drive is recomposed and then persistent is attached So it is Safe to install apps on the persistent Disk
