Office 2010 \ Open File View Settings

We recently upgraded our Terminal Servers to Office 2010. We use Flex Profiles and we are having issues capturing one setting. When a user is In Microsoft Excel 2010 or any other Office 2010 application and then go to File Open they are looking at their "My Documents" Folder some of our users prefer to change the Folder View at this point to (Large Icons, Details, List,...) After they do this and log off and back on this setting was not captured. I have used Procmon to try and see where this setting is being written to, but i haven't had any luck. Does anyone know where the View Settings are being stored for Office 2010 Applications when opening Files? This setting seems to be specific to Each Application. Thanks

Whats the status of this issue?
We experienced the same problems under Windows XP. Under Windows 7 the keyboard layout settings works fine.

upgrade Flex profile from 5 --> 6 -->7

Phil,
If you have any further questions do not hesitate to get in touch. Either via this forum, or through support@immidio.com.
As for the different user profile folders across OS versions: since you're referring to these folders through symbolic names with Flex Profiles (the <...> folder tokens), this is not an issue. For instance, <AppData>\Microsoft is resolved to something like C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft on Windows XP, but on Windows 7 that becomes C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft.
Note that not all settings can actually be "upgraded" like this (that is, we can't guarantee that version 2 of an application will correctly process the version 1 settings that you've imported), but in general it works rather well.

Thanks for this
much appreciated
I think i understand :) in what i need to do though i may have to get back if stuck?
thanks again sir!
PS
if we are going cross platform
x86 > x64
2003 office > 2010
at the moment we capture certain folders, i.e. %Appdata%\Microsoft\blah, blah
and also HKCU\Software etc
to go from cross platform and cross Applicaiton instance i would need two sets of Profiles, if that makes sense?
does this make sense
what i mean is that signatures exist in documents & Settings\%username\Application data\Microsoft\Signatures
yet in V2 profile its c:\users\appdata\roaming\etc etc etc
This is goign to cause me some problems?
Phil

Phil,
You can easily skip the upgrade to version 6 and directly move to the latest and greatest Immidio Flex Profiles 7.5.
Basically, you'll follow an approach similar to what's described in the How to migrate Flex Profile Kit 5.x to Immidio Flex Profiles Advanced Edition 6.1 document:
- Don't change anything yet in your FPK 5.1 setup (i.e. keep it running at logon and logoff)
- Install Immidio Flex Profiles 7.5
- Configure Immidio Flex Profiles 7.5 to perform an export at logoff — do not yet run it at logon
This way, you will collect profile archives in the Immidio Flex Profiles format (as opposed to the old .OPS/.7z files from the FPK). After a while (when you are sufficiently certain that all necessary settings have been collected for all your users), you can configure Immidio Flex Profiles to also run at logon, and turn off FPK (both at logon and logoff).
NOTE: To have Immidio Flex Profiles perform an export at logoff even though it didn't run at logon, you need to specify the -F argument (as described on page 72 of the Admin Guide) in addition to the -s argument.

Hi
i recently posted a request for how we could move users from version 5x to version 7 and i was very kindly pointed in the right direction in terms of 2 x guides
flex 5 --> 6 guide
flex 6 --> 7 guide
unfortunately, all i have at my disposal in terms of software is version 5 and a trial version 7
How can i go about obtaining version 6 to test this upgrade process?
Many thanks
Phil Waller

Hi Sander,
Can you please send a log file (at DEBUG level) to support@immidio.com, containing a log of an export where you're using profile cleanup to clean up the cookies folder?

profile cleanup not working

I've installed 7.5.2 at a customer and I have issues getting profile cleanup to work correctly.
We have migrated several folders by running in romaing mode first. For some users this has resulted in very large cookie folders and recent file lists.
Now all users have mandatory profiles and I wan't to cleanup the cookies and office recent files folder.
I've added this to my ini: (same ini that stores internet explorer settings)
[DeleteFolderTrees]
<Cookies>
it gives me this in the log: 2012-05-01 17:08:48.636 [ERROR] Profile cleanup: Skipping blacklisted folder '<Cookies>'
Adding [Force Delete] resolves this issue but than notjing happens and the cokies stay in the cokkies folder.
How can I solve this?
best regards,
Sander

I guess that you are not using "-a" switch, as it is said in the manual, reconnact only launches the program on reconnect when it detects that either the client name or IP has changed, so you should use -a to launch the program even when reconnecting to the session from the same PC.

Matt,
In the next release, you can optionally configure to only export files that have been modified in the last X days. Combined with Profile Cleanup, this will pretty much cover your request, I think.
Matt wrote:
Also, Profile Cleanup needs to start with a Folder Token but there is no folder token I can use to cleanup.
I don't understand; what exactly do you want to clean up? Flex only supports files and folders in the user profile — anything outside that is indeed not supported.
The blacklist for Profile Cleanup can be overridden (we just don't want to make it too easy to remove a lot of files by accident). If you add \[FORCE DELETE] to a blacklisted item, the blacklist check will be skipped. So, in your case <StartMenu>\[FORCE DELETE] and <StartupMenu>\[FORCE DELETE] should do the trick.

Hi Tobias,
The .INI.FLAG file is created by the Flex Profiles Management Console because of certain configuration choices you made for that Flex config file. If you remove the flag file, you might end up with some hard to explain behaviour at logon.
What are the settings you chose in the Config File Processing part of the Advanced tab? The Skipping export for config file '...' due to processing criteria message in the log seems to indicate that you specified some criteria there — if they don't match, the file be skipped.
Re: Winamp — thanks for the report. We'll look into it.

I would like to see dates added to the Profile Cleanup tab. I want to delete files older than a certain date. I have to do this with a logoff script right now. I don't need cookies or recent files older than a certain timeframe.
Also, Profile Cleanup needs to start with a Folder Token but there is no folder token I can use to cleanup. I will use a logoff script for this too.
I also can't delete the user StartMenu or Startup folders because it is blacklisted.. We don't need those folders any more because we redirect the ProgramsMenu to a share for everyone. We don't need them anymore so would like to clean them out of the profile.
2012-04-24 13:05:02.881 [DEBUG] Profile cleanup: Cleaning folder '<StartMenu>'
2012-04-24 13:05:02.881 [ERROR] Profile cleanup: Skipping blacklisted folder '<StartMenu>'

Hi Tobias,
It looks like you're using the documentation of Flex Profiles 7.0 to configure version 7.5. I don't see any downloads performed by you, but three of your colleagues have downloaded Flex Profiles in the past (both version 7.0 in April and August 2011, and version 7.5 in November 2011 and April 2012) — I assume some of the downloaded files got mixed up.
Major changes were made to DirectFlex in 7.5, so the old documentation does not apply at all anymore. I can see how that would be confusing, yes :-)

in the admin guide 6.2. how to configure DirectFlex
- disable config file processing -> do not process during logon/logoff
at the next point in the admin guide is a screenshot: DirectFlex Sample Command Line with a button "copy to clipboard"
It's not part of a Flex Dialog?
The text over the picture:
"2. The command line to use for creating a shortcut for the selected application, apart from the actual application launch argument, is displayed on the Advanced tab as well."
But under the Advanced tab I just have the disabled option "Process during logon and logoff" if I activate DirectFlex on the DirectLex tab.

Hi Tobias,
I don't quite understand your question.
Are you referring to the Flex Profiles 7.5 Admin Guide? Section 6.2 describes how to configure your group policy in a silo scenario where you want to use both silo-specific settings and shared settings. There's nothing related to command lines in that section...
Please provide more info, thanks.
