Hi,

Can anyone tell me please, is there an official position from Kitware on the compatibility & support of the Paraview 5.9.x when the software is deployed to devices running Windows 10 1909 using Microsoft App-V 5.1 ?.

Microsoft App-V is an application virtualisation (application streaming) solution, which is different from virtualisation at the OS/platform level (like VirtualBox or VMware Workstation).

Any information on the official support policy / known issues, etc. would be gratefully received.

TIA

Hi Mathieu,

Unfortunately I’m not in a position to give it a test - I’m asking on behalf of another party who needs to understand if they would receive one of: no support/best efforts support, and to find out if anyone has tried it, and what the outcome was.

I will pass on the info re: not officially supported, but if there’s anything else you can add based on what I’ve posted, please do let me know.

Many thanks for your help.

Thanks Mathieu,

I will pass this information on, but just to make sure we share the same understanding… through one of these paid-for support arrangements, support for deployment of Paraview using Microsoft App-V 5.1 would be possible ?.

I’d say probably but someone has to take the time to look into it for a definitive answer.

ok, thank you - I appreciate it’s a less common support requirement than perhaps might ordinarily be needed for your software.

I’ll pass the information on and see if they wish to have a more detailed discussion to determine if this is a viable support possibility from a technical and commercial perspective.

I think that’s everything I need right now.

Many thanks for your help Mathieu.
