MSIX write HKLM in the bubble?
- Dec 02, 2024
There is no support for this currently. It would be possible to extend the RegLegacyFixup to support this, but I have not seen enough demand to take on that work (probably more than a month of effort). The solution would be to redirect to HKCU (similar to App-V) but it isn't as simple as redirecting as enumeration support also needs to be addressed.
It would help to gather a list of apps that need it. Most seem to be "in-house" apps that nobody wants to touch. For major ecosystem apps, I am aware that Bloomberg Studio requires this.

Hi Tim,
I already thought it was not possible. Could remember you told me earlier. But i wanted to try and see myself.
This is an application which require hklm odbc connection information for making connection to a back-end. Will test tomorrow if hkcu only also works in a local config.
Else for now i leave this application as appv and deploy that way from Intune.
Or need to dive into it to redirect to hkcu as you suggested.
Met een glimlach,
Johan
