Setting Isolation Options

AdminStudio 2025 | 29.0 | Repackager

Edition:This feature is available in AdminStudio Professional and Enterprise Editions.

Application isolation is one solution to component versioning conflicts. Isolation reduces versioning conflicts by modifying an application so it always loads the versions of components—such as DLLs—with which it was originally developed and tested.

On the Isolation Options Dialog Box, which is opened by selecting Isolation Options from the Tools menu, you can specify the following Repackager isolation options:

•

Assembly Options—Specify the type of assemblies Repackager will create: private side-by-side assemblies in the application folder or shared side-by-side assemblies in the WinSxS folder. You can also specify the assembly naming conventions. See Specifying Manifest Options.

•

Digital Signature Options—You can configure the certificate information required when using shared assemblies. This required digital signature provides an extra layer of protection, allowing you to obtain information about the company who created a global assembly. See Setting Digital Signature Options for Shared Assemblies.
