This topic includes information to help you troubleshoot deployment issues in Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (MED-V) 2.0 .
Troubleshooting Issues in MED-V Deployment
The following issue might occur when you deploy MED-V. The solution helps troubleshoot this issue.
- Problems Occur if Installing MED-V for Current User
Only. MED-V only supports the installation of the MED-V
Workspace Packager, the MED-V Host Agent, and the MED-V workspace
for all users. Installing for the current user only causes failures
in the installation of the components and in the setup of the MED-V
workspace.
Solution
Never use the option ALLUSERS=”” when installing the MED-V components.
- MED-V Requires Exclusive Use of the Virtualization
Stack. Only one virtualization stack can be run at a time on a
computer. Windows Virtual PC must use the virtual stack, and MED-V
depends on Windows Virtual PC. Therefore, if you try to deploy or
use MED-V when other applications are running that use the virtual
stack, MED-V cannot run or be successfully installed.
Solution
Close any application that is running that uses the virtualization stack before you install or run MED-V.
- Shortcuts Remain after Uninstall. By default, when you
uninstall MED-V, shortcuts in the end user’s Start menu are
removed. However, in certain situations, such as for end users who
are running roaming profiles, shortcuts to MED-V published
applications remain in the end user’s Start menu.
Solution
To manually delete the remaining shortcuts on the Start menu, right-click the shortcuts, and then click Remove.
