This tool lets you test an App-V 4.6 or 5.0 package locally, before moving it to a deployment server. The tool can be found in the following location:
<RayPackinstalldir>\Tools\AppvLauncher\AppvLauncher.exe
for example
C:\Program Files (x86)\RayPack\Tools\AppvLauncher\AppvLauncher.exe
Prerequisites
•Microsoft .NET 4.0 must be installed on the machine where AppvLauncher.exe is running
•Microsoft Application Virtualization Client must be installed on the machine where AppvLauncher.exe is running
•File streaming must be enabled
•The tool is fully standalone, requires no other files and no RayPack license.
Usage
You can simply copy the file to any location containing App-V 4.6 or App-V 5.0 package and run it by double clicking its icon.
•If exactly one App-V 4.6 or 5.0 package could be found in the same folder where the tool is, that package will be launched
•If no package has been found in the same folder where the tool is, nothing will happen
•If more than one App-V 4.6 or App-V 5.0 package is found, then a package selector will be shown:
In order to start the currently selected package, click on Launch App-V button. The icon on the left side informs about the App-V version of package (App-V 4.6 or App-V 5.0). Press Close to close the App-V launcher.
