Well-Known Root Folder Variables - Novell ZENWORKS APPLICATION VIRTUALIZATION - V8.0.3 User Manual

8.4
W
The Novell engine dynamically remaps well-known root folders such as My Documents and
Program Files to the appropriate location based on the host operating system at runtime. This
assures, for example, that the virtualized My Documents folder will be mapped to
\User\Bob\Documents when running on Windows Vista or \Documents and Settings\Bob\My
Documents when running on Windows 2000.
Most of the time, configurations are constructed using snapshotting or in the graphical user
interface. However, if manually modifying the XAPPL file, the following well-known root folder
variables may be used to configure virtual filesystem locations. Root folder variables are case
sensitive.
The following is a complete list of root folder variables recognized by ZENworks Application
Virtualization and the corresponding folder name displayed in the filesystem graphical user
interface, followed by a brief description of the root folder.
•

executable resides.
