Opening Project and Parameter Files

The capture process provides an opportunity to review the project files to update settings before building the executable package or MSI package.

For example, if you capture Firefox 2.0.0.3, you might browse the C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware ThinApp\Captures\Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3 directory to update a setting, such as an Active Directory specification, in the Package.ini file that contains the parameters set during the capture process. For information about updating settings, see Advanced Package Configuration.

The project includes folders, such as %AppData%, that represent file system paths that might change locations when running on different operating systems or computers. Most folders have ##Attributes.ini files that specify the isolation mode at the folder level.
