Visual Studio 2015 - App-V

Question
0

Sign in to vote
We are trying to sequence Visual Studio 2015 using App-V 5.1 / 5.0, but we are running into the issue that everytime we start the App-V (or even when sequencing) we cannot enter the License key, because it keeps saying "Prerelease software. License Expired"

We used the sequencing recipe available on technet, but no luck so far.

We tried to start the application during sequencing for testing and then we see the Licence Key, untill we check "I am finished installating..." and then it's broken -> "Prerelease software..."

Anyone had the same issue or know how to resolve this ?

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your reply!

We've tried the following recipe:

It's based on a recipe for VS 2012, but there isn't much information on the internet about VS and App-V unfortunately.
Will probably end up in a local deployment then for now.

As far as I know, this falls into the same Category, as it is with SQL Management Studio. SQL Management Studio < 2016, which is based on Visual Studio, also doesn't support Sequencing using App-V. It pretty much ends up with the same error.

As far as I know, they fixed this with SQL Management Studio 2016, but I'm not sure how this is with Visual Studio.

This unfortunately does fall within the same Category as Simon stated above. It's been a thorn in my side for many years now.
