App-V: VLC 2.0

Disabling update notifications appears to be held in the file located at:

C:\Users\h_fulbripd.US\AppData\Roaming\vlc\vlcrc

Thats a file not a folder. Simple way to capture config for this app is one of two options, either run the install/app and configure it then capture this folder and copy it to the sequencer when you sequence the app, or simple launch VLC after it installs (while still in the monitor phase) and configure it. Depending on your exclusions you may have to adjust them for the sequencer to pick this folder up, but that depends entirely on what changes you have made (it should pick it up fine by default in 4.6 SP1).

App-V: PrimalScript 2011

Pretty straightforward on this one. But a couple steps you need to take beforehand. First, download the following:

VC++ 2k8 SP1 Redist (x86)

VC++ 2k8 SP1 Redist (x64)

Install both of these on your clean Sequencer, when it comes time to install PrimalScript (you should already know how to get to this point) set the install directory to the folder on your Q: drive, choose Complete and uncheck the two VC++ 2k8 options. The rest of the install should go pretty smooth.

The only oddness I saw with the sequence (after the basic cleanup) was the first launch it PowerShell.exe hung (I may have been impatient) and I had to enter the serial # twice, which may have been residual issues from the first launch. Haven't been able to reproduce it yet.

App-V: Office 2010 w/Lync Step By Step.

This isn't the most rudimentary of guides, as you will need to have some idea what things mean (like that set LOCAL_INTERACTION_ALLOWED means to change it to true in the OSD tab for every application).

But this is about as streamlined as I can get it, without making any un-needed changes to the sequence.
