XP Mode Published Applications
I set up XP mode on a PC and tested it out. It worked great for some applications. So I decided to add some more applications shortcuts to the c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu folder. The new applications are not showing up in the Host machine's All Programs list. I uninstalled and reinstalled the Remote App hotfix and turned autopublish on and off. The Host machine's All Programs list remains unchanged. Any ideas on how to refresh that list of applications?

Could you be more specific about what applications you added? Some are explicitly excluded (mostly for good reasons.) -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/russel Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/russel

The applications that were installed are Fourth Shift Release 7.50B and AutoCAD 2005. Both of these programs require drives to be mapped, when they are run. So I created a batch file that maps the drives and then starts the program with the necessary parameters. The shortcuts that I placed into the c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu folder were links to these batch files. This process worked before when I tested the first app, which was a workflow document manager program.
