Hello FSlogix Nation,
Phil here from the FSLogix and APP-V Team.
You may recall I posted this Blog FSLogix and APP-V back in 2022 about APP-V and FSLogix and the need to Exclude the %localappdata%\Microsoft\Appv\Client folder and to Include AppData\Local\Microsoft\AppV\Client\VFS ?
Since the release of FSLogix 25.02 (3.25.202.4223) , there have been some reported issues for NEW FSlogix Profiles when having the following configuration:
- APP-V Package published to a new user
- New FSLogix Profile
- A Redirections.xml containing:
<Excludes>
<Exclude Copy="0">AppData\Local\Microsoft\Appv\Client</Exclude>
</Excludes>
<Includes>
<Include>AppData\Local\Microsoft\AppV\Client\VFS</Include>
</Includes>
The issue is that a new user will not get any APP-V applications published to them on logon and subsequent logons. You may see an error when running a Publish Refresh:
Existing FSLogix Profiles are not impacted with the latest FSlogix Release FSLogix 25.02 (3.25.202.4223)
Since this article was first created June 2022, the issue has since been resolved in FSLogix 2210 (2.9.8361.52326)
There have been no reported issues with any version prior to FSLogix 25.02 (3.25.202.4223) with the redirections.xml containing the entries for APP-V.
To Resolve:
Remove these entries from the Redirections.xml and save.
<Excludes>
<Exclude Copy="0">AppData\Local\Microsoft\Appv\Client</Exclude>
</Excludes>
<Includes>
<Include>AppData\Local\Microsoft\AppV\Client\VFS</Include>
</Includes>
The Profile however, even with the removal , will still have issues in getting APP-V applications.
You will need to create a new profile for that user , then FSLogix Profile users should be able to have APP-V apps published to them on logon.
