I'm new to App-V, so I'm only learning about what it's capable of. I am working on my first sequenced app. This particular program contains various different document types that can be opened from the app. Meaning it might have a link to a Word document,
and when you double click the document, it launches Word and displays the document. (More accurately, it launches whatever program is specified in the registry as the default program for the .docx document type). It can hold nearly any document type, most
commonly Word, Excel, and PDF.
If I run this program as an App-V package, I expect that it won't have access to Word or Acrobat in order to open those links. I know that I can create an App-V package, and configure a Connection Group (or Virtual Environment) to allow it to communicate
with other App-V packages. It seems like a daunting task to create an App-V package for Office and Acrobat and anything else I would need to make sure those documents open properly. Especially considering that Office and Acrobat are already installed on every
machine in the network. Is there some way to allow my App-V package to launch locally installed programs like Office and Acrobat?
