Implementation Notes
Component | Summary | Details | Affected Version |
PEM / Appliance | When executing an upgrade, the OS upgrade must be executed prior to the PEM upgrade | The July release the product has been updated to support .NET 6. The OS upgrade is the component that installs .NET 6. Therefore the OS upgrade must be executed first. | 19.3.102 |
PK Protect / App-V Deployments | Before starting the App-V sequencer (and installing the PK Protect client), the following registry key needs to be set: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PKWARE\SmartCrypt\UI] "CtxMenu"=dword:00000001 | This makes the PK Protect installer activate the legacy Windows Explorer integration instead of the new Windows Explorer integration. Immediately after the App-V sequencer installs the PK Protect client (and before you tell it that you're done installing), the following registry key needs to be set: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PKWARE\SmartCrypt] "InstallPackage"=dword:00000000 This stops the PK Protect Agent from trying to install the new Windows 11 package on startup (since it won't work in App-V). | 19.3.102 |
