Best Practices for Virtualizing Visual Studio 2010 • Our focus is on using the Symantec Workspace Virtualization Admin Tool to virtualize Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. – Also included is a method for using Symantec Virtual Composer to prepare the package for use with Symantec Workspace Streaming. • The solution is an adaption from Microsoft’s prescriptive guidance for sequencing Visual Studio 2010 in App-V. – We will write a script to run DDConfig. CA. exe contingent upon the existence of a registry key, bundle the script with the package, then call it using an On. Event action. Note: DDConfig. CA. exe is a component of Visual Studio, however, Microsoft does not provide a description of what it does; they only mention it as a diagnostic tool. Virtualization & Streaming Webcast Series 5

Problem • Consider the following scenario: – You have a valid volume license for Visual Studio 2010. – You package Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 using SWV 6. 1 SP 8. – You import the package on another machine and attempt to start it. • In this scenario, you receive the following error message: – Invalid license data. Reinstall is required. – Then, Visual Studio 2010 exits. Virtualization & Streaming Webcast Series 6

Pre-requisites • The following items should be conventionally installed before creating the virtual layer: – Install. NET framework 4 (full profile) – Install available Windows Updates – Confirm the installation of Microsoft KB 2468871 Note: Endpoint virtualization clients should likewise have these same items installed conventionally.

Step 1 - Create the Visual Studio 2010 Layer • Using the SWV Admin tool, start a single program capture of a command prompt. • Install Visual Studio 2010. – Install everything except the following: • Microsoft Share. Point Developer Tools • SQL Server 2008 Express • Install Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2010. • Install Microsoft Hotfix KB 2526163. • Exit the command prompt to end the capture.

Step 2 a – On. Post. Activate • Create a script to run DDConfig. CA. exe Sample. Setup. Script. bat : CHECK REG QUERY HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftVisual. Studio10. 0Ready. For. SWV if %errorlevel%==1 (goto RUN) else (goto END) : RUN C: VS 2010Common 7IDEDDConfig. CA. exe REG ADD HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftVisual. Studio10. 0Ready. For. SWV : END Exit • Copy the script to the RO layer’s Meta folder. – C: fslrdr1MetaSample. Setup. Script. bat • Create an On. Post. Activate event to run the script. – HKLMSystemCurrent. Control. SetServicesFSLX1 • On. Post. Activate (REG_MULTI_SZ) = w, %VZ_LAYER_METADIR%Sample. Setup. Script. bat Virtualization & Streaming Webcast Series 9

Step 2 b - On. Pre. Execution (Streaming only) • Modify the script to end with "Echo 1 > %1" (without quotes) Sample. Setup. Script. bat : CHECK REG QUERY HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftVisual. Studio10. 0Ready. For. SWV if %errorlevel%==1 (goto RUN) else (goto END) : RUN C: VS 2010Common 7IDEDDConfig. CA. exe REG ADD HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftVisual. Studio10. 0Ready. For. SWV : END Echo 1 > %1 • In Symantec Virtual Composer: – Set Script Type: Pre. Execution – Select the option: Run with User Privileges (non-system account) Virtualization & Streaming Webcast Series 10

Step 3 - On. Pre. Delete • Create a script to clean up the registry entry created earlier. Sample. Cleanup. Script. bat : CLEANUP REG DELETE HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftVisual. Studio10. 0Ready. For. SWV Exit • Copy the script to the RO layer’s Meta folder. – C: fslrdr1MetaSample. Cleanup. Script. bat • Create an On. Pre. Delete event to run the script. – HKLMSystemCurrent. Control. SetServicesFSLX1 • On. Pre. Delete (REG_MULTI_SZ) = w, %VZ_LAYER_METADIR%Sample. Cleanup. Script. bat Virtualization & Streaming Webcast Series 11
