Windows OS app dream.
- Install once.
- Stay up to date forever.
- No disruptions during updates.
- Even as a limited user.

Like Google Chrome update mechanism.
But available for everyone.
And implementation that takes a few minutes.

Coming soon.

Bugs fixed:
• Adding MST to main actions uses incorrect parameters for uninstall and repair commands.
• Custom registry detection key gets over-written when loading installer info.

M.A.D. Day 2024 – Hamburg 15th November 2024 – Recap. | Microsoft Community Hub In Hamburg on the M.A.D. Day (Modern Application Deployment) we could announce that App-V is no longer being deprecated – The Client and the Sequencer. But...

Microsoft will not remove the App-V Client from future OS Versions. Why was this decision made?

Read the answer in the latest Microsoft blog by Escalation Engineer Sebastian Gernert.

I'm tired of seeing AI-generated images in blog posts. Writing a blog post is personal and unique, and the thumbnail should amplify that personality. But those thoughtless, lazy, and same-looking AI-generated pictures completely ruin the desire to open the post and dig in.

I’m curious about these apps that works only in App-V. Can you share more?

We stopped using WixToolset and built Master Packager Dev to build the MSI package from our source code.

We will focus on solving all the problems we know from packaging thousands of applications.

- Pricing (it's free if you have non-commercial app)
- Quality
- Speed
- Complexity
- Deployment

As I have said and shown for years - MSIX is not ready.
Actions from Microsoft prove that even more.

MICROSOFT STRATEGY - STATEMENT
We will continue to evaluate and balance MSIX and App Attach
investments with longer-term ambitions to close the gaps with App-
V, but we recognize it's currently not a complete replacement, and
we need to renew our commitment to App-V to put our enterprise
customers at ease and unblock their migration to the cloud and to
newer Windows versions.

From Andreas Nick at #MADDAY:
"Microsoft announces the end of the #Appv exit at our #MADDAY. The client will remain in the operating system and the 2026 end date is off the table!"
