Hi Abhi211 
Please find the attached example for applying File Redirection Fixup. 

Few points worth noting: 

  1. Default for any application's app data is under '%localappdata%\packages\[packagename]\localcache'
  2. The given configuration allows to redirect any package write operation under VFS/AppData folder, after application has been launched. 
  3. Appdata that was already captured during installation will not be redirected. To move such existing VFS/AppData, you will need to use PSF powershell script fixup.
