Applications with hardcoded paths
In my citrix environment, I am trying to install on applications to D:\ drive. Most applications doesnt have problems with this, however some of them requires installation to C:\ drive.
Sometimes you can fix these applications yourself, sometimes you can fix them with vendor or application support, however there are situations where you are not able to do anything about application locations.
In this case I prefer to still install applications to D:\ drive and just create symbolic link to C:\ drive.
I am using Junction from SysInternals for such tasks.
So the process is:
a.) Install application to D:\Apps\AppX
b.) Configure security on D:\Apps\AppX
c.) Create symlink from D:\Apps\AppX to C:\XApp
What are you doing when you encounter such application?
