SAP Logon with MSIX User settings issues

Copper Contributor

Hello,

 

I have packaged SAP Logon Version 760 with MSIX (Standard Instalaltion), the application works so far without errors.

However, user-specific settings cannot be saved.

The funny thing is that it works under Windows 11 (version 22h2 January 2024 patch) but not under Windows 10 (version 22h2 January 2024 patch).

The policy settings and the rights of the user are identical.

By analyzing with Procmon I could determine that under Windows 10 an Access Denied comes with the creation of Regkeys.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\hivelist

REG_SZs are created here to refer to User.dat and UserClasses.dat in the SystemAppData of the MSIX package.

Path: \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Users\DEALSV\AppData\Local\Packages\SAPGUI_131xeqky2rrc4\SystemAppData\Helium\User.dat

 

These are created under Windows 11, but this is not the case under Windows 10.

 

What can be configured here?

Have you taken a look at the new Registry Legacy Fixup that has been included with MSIX Packaging Tool now? Tim Mangan did a nice write up of the proposal before it was introduced.
