A virtual application by using the Launch Application command
A whole disk encryption product
A system security software
Note Examples of the conflicting products include PGP Desktop 9.10.0 and Verdasys Digital Guardian.
Some applications cannot be started successfully when you use the Launch Application command of an App-V client to start the applications. Additionally, you receive a missing DLL error or a side-by-side error.
You use Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) 2007 to distribute a virtual package that is sequenced by using App-V 4.5 Cumulative Update 1. However, the Launch Application command of an App-V 4.5 SP1 client cannot start this virtual package.
