Novell ZENWORKS APPLICATION VIRTUALIZATION 8.0.2 - 11-2010 User Manual page 68

Shortcuts allow the end user to launch the application directly from the Windows Start Menu or
Desktop.
7.2.7 Output Location
To define the Output Location for the virtual application setup file:
•
Click Browse next to the Output Location and assign it a file name.
•
Check the Automatically generate MSI after successful build checkbox if the setup
file should be created automatically after the build process.
7.2.8 Installation Parameters
To install the virtual application for All Users, check the Install application for All Users check
box. If checked, this option requires administrative privileges on the target system.
To automatically update existing versions, select the Automatically upgrade earlier application
versions option. This option will update previous versions of this virtual executable.
To use side-by-side installation, select the Allow side-by-side versions of the same application
option.
Note: The Company Name\Product Name needs to be entered in the Application Folder field.
If neither is entered, the virtual application will be installed under folders named "Company
Name\Product Name".
7.2.9 Creating Shortcuts
To create shortcuts that open specific application within the OpenOffice suite:
Click Add Shortcut and assign it a Name, assign it a Target, select an Icon, and enter any
arguments that need to be passed to the specific application.
Folders that are created by the setup package can also be setup in this pane.
7.2.10 File Associations
To create File Associations:
Click on the Add ProgId button and enter the ProgId and a Description of the file association.
Click Add Extension and enter the file extension and MIME Type (if necessary) to the ProgId.
If a verb is needed for the file extension, click Add Verb and enter the necessary information.
7.2.11 Removing unnecessary files from the snapshot
During the installation process for many applications, temporary installation files are created.
While these files are necessary for the installation, they are not required for the virtual application
to run.
In OpenOffice, the installation files are created in the same directory that the install executable
was executed from.
