Group policy script to install App-V Terminal Server Client

This is a small .bat file to configure in Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Startup Scripts. One must modify the location of the %SOURCE% variable to reflect where your installation media is.

This is for 32-bit Terminal Server nodes. Replace the 32_BIT with 64_BIT and copy your App-V installation files off of your Microsoft Desktop Optimisation Pack 2010 media or download them from: –

[1] Visual C++ 2005 x86 here

[2] Visual C++ 2008 x86 here

[3] Microsoft Application Error Reporting (installation media) Support\Watson\dw20shared.msi
