Consider it more of a debugging tool and Kalle's a professional tool. Well, today I finally have that permission! Once I finished it last winter, I had to wait Microsoft gave me permission to release (a bureaucratic thing that took way too long). Meanwhile I had been working, with some encouragement from Microsoft, to complete a workable release. This month Kalle released an update to the paid-for version of his tool with capabilities to read the pkg. I could list files and folders and expand the virtual registry, but I always either missed some things from the file or picked up extraneous garbage.īecause it is hands-down the worst file format ever devised.īy comparison, the Sft format is a piece of cake.Īnd it's not just me, Kalle Saunamäki (the creator of Application Virtualization Explorer ) worked on this long and hard without success for a long time too. Have you ever wanted to see what was captured in the App-V user or global PKG file?įor the last 4 years, on and off, I have been trying to build a tool to do just that.Īnd for just as long I have been really close to having such a tool, but not close enough to release one.
