# How to apply the user configuration file by using Windows PowerShell
[!INCLUDE [Applies to Windows client versions](../includes/applies-to-windows-client-versions.md)]
When you publish a package to a specific user, you'll also need to specify a dynamic user configuration file to tell that package how to run.
## Apply a user configuration file
Here's how to specify a user-specific configuration file:
> [!NOTE]
> The following example cmdlets use this example file path for its package:
>
> * C:\\Packages\\Contoso\\MyApp.appv.
>
> If your package file uses a different file path than the example, feel free to replace it as needed.
1. Enter the following cmdlet in Windows PowerShell to add the package to the computer:
```PowerShell
Add-AppVClientPackage C:\Packages\Contoso\MyApp.appv
```
2. Enter the following cmdlet to publish the package to the user and specify the updated the dynamic user configuration file:
```PowerShell
Publish-AppVClientPackage $pkg -DynamicUserConfigurationPath C:\Packages\Contoso\config.xml
```
