How to Upgrade a Virtual Application by Using the Command Line
Use the following procedure to upgrade a virtual application by using a command line.
To upgrade a virtual application
-
On the computer that is running the Application Virtualization (App-V) Sequencer, to open the command prompt, select Start, Run, and type cmd. Click OK.
-
At the command prompt, specify the location where the App-V Sequencer is installed. For example, at the command prompt, you could type the following: cd C:\Program Files\Microsoft Application Virtualization Sequencer.
-
At the command prompt, type the following command, replacing the text in quotation marks with your values:
SFTSequencer /UPGRADE:"pathtosourceSPRJ" /INSTALLPACKAGE:"pathtoUpgradeInstaller" /DECODEPATH:"pathtodecodefolder" /OUTPUTFILE:"pathtodestinationSPRJ"Note
You can specify additional parameters by using the command line, depending on the complexity of the application you are upgrading. For a complete list of parameters that are available for use with the App-V Sequencer, see Sequencer Command-Line Parameters.
Use the value descriptions in the following table to help you determine the actual text you will use in the preceding command.
