ACE215: App-V Shortcut Name and Version Conflicts

AdminStudio 2021 R2 | 22.0 | Application Manager

ACE215 indicates that an App-V package contains a shortcut (App-V application) that uses the same name and version as one in another package. The combination of the name and version should be unique for shortcuts in different packages, since only one application is published and available at any given time. ACE215 can be run against an App-V source package and against only an App-V target package.
