Initially we were on 2.11 for testing with win10 standard.  When 2.12 came out we did a brand new install and used win10 2016 LTSB instead since it is a "stripped down" version of windows. Once attached we can see the contents but using the WinDirStat application PLUS we can see that the writable is much larger than recorded in the appvolume manager.  Some writables show up as big as 40 gigs.  Working with VMware support it's like the temp directory is replicating itself over and over.  I have been told this issue has never seen before and engineering is looking into it.
We are using writables and they are attached for every user.

well this won't help but we have the same problem too.  Anything flash basically bricks our VMs (even with flash optimizer).  Chrome especially would cause my other sys admins to have their VM freeze and eventually we'd have to manually log off their session. Even with IE having all the flash plugins updated/installed, the horizon 7 web portal can't load, and some other VMware appliance pages have issues. Gotta love it. We run horizon 7.0.3, appvol 2.12, win10 2016 LTSB, linked clones.

-Appvol 2.12 running on sever 2012 r2 data center -connected to separate SQL 2012 SP2 database -linked clones, refresh on log out -horizon 7.0.3 -all brand new installs, nothing upgraded -Windows 10 2016 LTSB -Using the default template provided by appvolumes for writable storage (user installed programs and profile data) SO this is what we are seeing The user's writable volumes attaches properly and stores their data as expected.  Randomly, whether it is 3 days later or a month later after the initial creation of the user's writable, the writable volume will show as attached on the VM and in the appvol manager portal BUT the user is missing all of their saved data (favorites, onenote pins etc...)  Sometimes a reboot will fix the issue but eventually after each log in the data will be missing their information and we have to delete their writable and build again.  We've gotten to the point where everyday we are rebuilding another user's writable volumes.  Needless to say it is getting frustrating. Has anyone else seen this?  We have a ticket open with support but they said they have never seen this issue before so I am curious if anyone else has seen this OR if things have been working well for you. Thanks!
