Description

Assembly Type

This option allows you to select the type of assemblies that Application Isolation Wizard™ will create and use:

Create private side-by-side assemblies in the application folder
Create shared side-by-side assemblies in the WinSxS folder (Default)

If you want to use both assembly types, you need to manually configure assemblies from the Manifest and Assembly Design Dialog Box.

Note:Manifests for shared assemblies must be digitally signed. This can be done in the Digital Signature Tab.

Note:A 2048-bit key is required to sign a Windows XP assembly/manifest being installed to the WinSxS folder.

Assembly Naming Conventions

Specify your company and division information to define the default naming convention that Application Isolation Wizard will use when creating assemblies during application isolation

By default, assembly names are specified in the form of:

Company.Division.Assembly

Create a new component for each assembly

Select this option if you want to create a new component for each assembly created during isolation.

This check box applies to all assemblies created. Individual assemblies can be configured from the Assembly Properties dialog box on a per-assembly basis.

Caution:If you are creating assemblies for applications files within multiple components, this option must be selected for successful application isolation.

If you are planning to deploy this isolated package to operating systems prior to Windows XP, always check this box.
