Hi,
I have a question regarding multiple builds and in particular MSI and App-V 5.1.
If you use the default repackager settings and the all the com, file association and services information is stored in the tables of the project and you have selected to build MSI and App-v 5.1 packages simultaneously does the table information translate to the corresponding registry keys for the App-v package?
Thanks,
Jim

Re: MSI and App-V 5.1 builds
Hi Jim and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,
Yes, basically you can repackage existing MSI installations to working App-V packages. The functionality has some advantages over the Microsoft Sequencer like detecting drivers from your project, excluding them from the App-V package build and placing them in a MSI next to the App-V output.
You can also check out our blog, for related App-V articles. We have a couple from Tim Mangan, the creator of App-V.
All the best,
Mihai
