    Ever since my blog on Adding and Publishing a Package in Standalone Mode I have noticed an increased number of people hitting this issue when trying to add/publish their App-V packages.

    Following on from my post called Understanding the PVAD where we talked about how things work in the absence of the Q: mount drive we had in previous versions of App-V, I want to share with you some insights into how permissions work on both the PVAD and VFS for both admin and non-admin users.

  • Blog Post: Feature Block 0 - The Publishing Feature Block

    Following on from my post around “ App-V Package Streaming Optimisation ” let’s talk more about the Publishing Feature Block. In App-V 4.x if we chose to optimise our package we would end up with a FB1 (Primary Feature Block) and FB2 (Secondary Feature Block). FB1 would contain...
