App-V FAQ: Where can I find information on sequencing applications?
Before you even attempt your first sequence with App-V, I strongly recommend reading the Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.6 Sequencing Guide. This document lays the ground work for creating a successful sequencing environment and describes the best practices you should follow when sequencing. An older knowledgebase article exists, but it is still worth referencing: Best practices to use for sequencing in Microsoft SoftGrid.
The Microsoft TechNet forums is the main source of information for community lead recipes and answers to sequencing questions:
Other locations include:
- The Sequencing forum on AppVirtGuru.com
- AppDeploy.com is a great resource for creating silent installs, plus it also includes details for virtualising many of those applications
I have compiled a list of recipes, documents and forum links here at stealthpuppy.com/AppVRecipes. This page draws from a list of App-V recipe bookmarks from my Delicious account which is updated regularly.
