AppSence

Environment  Manager:

This would be used to configure personalization and all environment related changes in different type of OS's.

• While creating demo profile we have to makesure that at AD level his mandatory or roaming profile not configured. Make all mandatory changes after login using that blank user profile  Ex: Office activation, Proxy setup, Default IE page setup because this would be used as a base profile.
• Login with another user and delete all the profiles except base user profile using mycomputer properties.

• Go to demo user profile folder and copy "NTUSER.dat" because that would contain all important profile changes registry setting during system setup using demo user login.

• Copy file at appsence share folder and copy this NTDS file.

• Goto regedit and navigate to HKEY_USER and upload copied\remned registory hive.Give New Name

• Right click and give permission to "domain users"  & Everyone >>Goto Advanced and select user include inheritable and Replace Child object permissions full control.

• Unload the hive so that all changes would be saved. We can remove rest of the files which would be there as a backup.

• Follow same procedure for other OS, Appsence is intelligent enough to identify the nature of user is coming from and accordingly sevre the profile for Win7,XP etc OS.
• There is a way to provide application from local system without using any tool like AppV,Citrix for that you have to set copy\map operation while system startup and all bundles would start showing in system as local and from there  over all software package would open for end user as local not stream.

• HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\ here you would found Key named as "AllowIntdependantfilestreaming" and set it's value to 1.
