App Settings Overview

Using the App Settings feature, Application Workspace administrators can choose application preferences that will automatically follow end users across sessions and devices. End users will get a consistent experience, without any interruption or the need to reconfigure settings that previously reverted to defaults.

As an administrator, you can:

  • Define which application settings to capture and restore for end users
  • Link a single App Settings entry to one or multiple packages
  • Track which packages have App Settings applied on the Auditing and Packages pages
Current App Settings Limitations
  • To retain application preferences correctly, end users must launch the application using the Application Workspace Smart Icon.
  • Application Workspace captures and restores all app settings each time, rather than only changes since the previous session.
  • This feature is currently supported on Windows devices only.
  • This feature is not currently supported on Distributed File Systems (DFS).
