App-V package deployed to terminal server: shortcut gone, howto repair for all users?

Hi,

I have a terminal server to which I deployed putty App-V 4.6, deployed putty via App-V 5.0.
Users which have their App-V 4.6 putty removed don't get the shortcut for App-V 5.0 putty, users who logon freshly get the putty correctly.

Tried several things but what I need is a repair on USER level.

These didn't help.

#Set back shortcuts Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Get-AppvClientPackage -name *putty* | Repair-AppvClientPackage -Extensions } -ComputerName $ComputerName -verbose #Set back shortcuts Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Get-AppvClientPackage -name *putty* | Repair-AppvClientPackage -UserState } -ComputerName $ComputerName -verbose #REPAIR APP-V PACKAGE Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Get-AppvClientPackage -name *putty* -all | Stop-AppvClientPackage -Global | Repair-AppvClientPackage -Extensions } -ComputerName $ComputerName -verbose

Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock  { Get-AppvClientPackage -name  *putty*  -all | Repair-AppvClientPackage -Extensions -global } -ComputerName $ComputerName -verbose

Please advise.

Jan - did you try to ask this question on the App-V forums like I suggested previously? What did they feedback?

I found some kind of solution here https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1786ad97-9347-41ba-bb80-379db0ce3650/rebuild-appv-5x-shortcuts?forum=mdopappv but then still I can't be the only one with an sccm server and App-V 4.6 / 5.0 which has this problem(?!) How poorly this is implemented I just can't fetch.

Maybe it's a App-v question after all but then again it could also be also App-V 5.0 since there might be an implementation in which App-V 5.0 takes ownership of the shortcut and prevents removal of 4.6 shortcut.
Like I said, other users must have faced the same issue. The post I refer to is of 2013 now there has to be a workaround/solution for this, right?

Like should we use this in the App-V 5.0 for each App-V 5.0 package?
