Controlling the Display of Predefined Folders

AdminStudio 2025 | 29.0 | Microsoft App-V Assistant

On the Files page, the Microsoft App-V package tree initially displays the more commonly used predefined folders, such as [CommonFilesFolder] and [ProgramFilesFolder]. You can show and hide predefined folders on this page.

To display additional predefined folders:

  1. In the Microsoft App-V Assistant , open the Files page.
  2. Right-click the Microsoft App-V Application node (or any of the files or folders that are listed), point to Show Predefined Folder , and then click predefined folder that you want to show.
    • The folders that are currently displayed are preceded by a check mark; the folders that are not currently displayed do not have a check mark.

AdminStudio adds the predefined folder to root level of the Microsoft App-V package tree.
