OK. So XenDesktop 7, the new combined version of XenDesktop and XenApp is now released.
And we can see that Citrix has not integrated their own application virtualization solutions (Citrix Streaming) into the Citrix Studio console. Instead, they have chosen to with integrate Microsoft App-V 5. |
And not just into the Management console, but also in the new AppDNA, which …
Scripting is completely different in App-V 5 versus 4.*. Back in December, I wrote this post describing App-V 5 Scripting support to supplement and hopefully clarify the limited information provided by Microsoft. It will take more time than I have for a couple weeks to be able to write down what I learned this week into a comprehensible document, but …
App_Remediation is a new free tool I am releasing to the public today.
App_Remediation is a console application designed to be used with App-V 5 (and above) to save and restore application related data (ARD) between locations that normally do not roam and those that do.

Working with App-V 5 through all of the pre-releases and now the final release for some time, I have settled on my three favorite tools. And it is time to let you in on the secret.…
One the big mysteries to me has always been why Shell Extensions are so hard for application virtualization. And I had never really taken a deep look into them to unravel they mystery until this year. But now I have, and it turns out to be less of a mystery novel and more of the Steven King kind.
Here is my attempt to explain the differences between App-V before version 5 and version 5. It is a 16 minute video to explains the main differences at the client and how this affects your ability to deploy applications.
