Earlier this week I was queried (by Andrew) about an issue with the JreBlock script we use for sequencing Java. There was an issue with using in on 64-bit machines. Patrick wrote the original version for us more than 4 years ago, and we were using a different version in our training classes than was on the website |

I’m Converted: How I Convert Packages from App-V 4.x to 5.1
This has to rank among the top posts that I never thought I would write in my entire life. I mean, it is right up there with “Why I’ll never play golf again”. If we had subtitles, the subtitle of this article would be “The 5.1 Converter Doesn’t Suck“. High praise indeed!

Today I created my first Virtual Device Driver with App-V!!!!
