Two packaging scenarios available in Apptimized portal:

- Packaging – Self Service;
- Packaging – Factory Service.

## **Packaging – Self Service**

A user implements a built-in packaging tool on VMs – Apptimized Workspace. A user can easily in a couple of clicks create one or several packages of multiple formats and send them to Apptimized for further testing or deployment.

Packaging – Self Service characteristics:

- A user packages the application using the Apptimized Packaging Tool;
- A user creates and customizes MSI, App-V, MSIX, VSL packages;
- A user customizes an existing package or sequence;
- A user tests and debugs installations.

The **Packaging - Self Service** option is available under the **Packaging - Self Service** module in the **Transition screen**.

#### **Repackage to MSI, App-V, MSIX, or VSL**

When clicking the **Repackage to MSI, App-V, MSIX, or VSL** option, the APE will redirect a user to a Wizard. A user needs to provide input at each step.

##### **Capturing installation and configuration**

APE will capture all changes made to the system by scanning a file and registry changes, after that converting it to a machine-readable form. Those changes will typically include the installation of the application and the features selection, as well as customization of the application's settings to reflect the desired result as documented during the Discovery step.

VM preparation and prerequisites installation must proceed before packaging. The prerequisites are considered as applications that need to be present for a user’s software or its installer to function, but a user does not want those software products to be included into the package (e.g., because a prerequisite is already installed on the user’s machines or is managed as a separate dependency package).

The option to start a recording session is available under the **Start recording** button.

[![packaging_37.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/iJJKlgjQZYIADZ0C-packaging_37.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/iJJKlgjQZYIADZ0C-packaging_37.png)

<p class="callout info">**Note.** Any VM activity or inactivity can leave traces in the captured result (including those not relevant to the package or application results). A user needs to confine to the activities needed for packaging and finish the process as quickly as possible).</p>

APE shows the following notification when successful:

[![packaging_37_1.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/kYpbiFRyR54Hkcif-packaging_37_1.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/kYpbiFRyR54Hkcif-packaging_37_1.png)

The option to suspend capturing changes made to the filesystem and registry is available under the **Pause** button. The option to resume the recording is available under the **Pause** button (click the **Pause** button again).

[![packaging_40.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/WCNBSMstT2fRhbvn-packaging_40.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/WCNBSMstT2fRhbvn-packaging_40.png)

Once the recording has started a user enables a user to browse the path of the installation file (**Browse** button).

The option to provide the additional parameters (i.e., to specify additional launch arguments) is available under the **Parameters (optional)** field.

[![packaging_38.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/AkC1a5yj0ADYobfE-packaging_38.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/AkC1a5yj0ADYobfE-packaging_38.png)

When the synchronization process is finished, APE shows the following screen:[![packaging_40_3.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/S4B5OTn6BR7fFiZA-packaging_40_3.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/S4B5OTn6BR7fFiZA-packaging_40_3.png)

When the installation and configuration activities are completed, the record must be finished. The option to stop the record is available under the **Stop recording** button.

This will terminate the recording process and prepare the captured system changes for producing an MSI, MSIX, App-V, or VSL. The terminating process may take few moments (additional post-processing and cleanup will be applied to the output).

<p class="callout info">**Note.** Apptimized applies advanced logic and filters to keep the snapshot result clean from unneeded or dangerous files and registry keys. However, typically captured results require manual review and adjustments to achieve the desired result or to apply further cleanup from the captured system or user activity.</p>

The processing file system changes may take few moments:

A user can review and adjust the application metadata if required.

The default values generate from the portfolio metadata provided during the file import process and do not need to be changed in most of the cases.

If the installation session consisted of more than one installer, select the primary installer to extract the metadata.

##### **Review captured content**

The option to the recorded content for the files, registry entries, services, and other system items that were modified or created during the installation is available under the **Review recorded content** button.

[![packaging_41_1.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/KJMWMDnrPUc6tkav-packaging_41_1.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/KJMWMDnrPUc6tkav-packaging_41_1.png)

APE shows the snapshot editor screen when successful:[![packaging_42.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/87rFTmI5qQoVyztu-packaging_42.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/87rFTmI5qQoVyztu-packaging_42.png)

A user can navigate across different tabs based on the captured content nature:

- Filesystem;
- Registry;
- Shortcuts;
- Drivers;
- Services;
- Certificates;
- Environment;
- Registry ACL;
- Filesystem ACL;
- Firewall Rules.

**Filesystem** and **Registry** tabs are presented in a tree structure view.

**Shortcuts**, **Environment**, **ACL**, **Services**, and other tabs are presented in a table-based view.

The **Filesystem** tab shows captured changes to the filesystem (file &amp; folders).

The **Registry** tab shows captured changes to the Windows registry.

The **Shortcuts** tab shows captured shortcuts.

The **Drivers** tab shows captured drivers.

The **Services** tab shows all services which were created during source installation.

The **Certificates** tab shows all changes which were added to the Certificate Stores.

The **Environment** tab shows captured environment variables created during the source installation.

The **Registry ACL** tab shows captured permission changes in the Windows registry.

The **Filesystem ACL** tab shows captured changes to filesystem ACLs. An Access Control List (ACL) is a list of Access Control Entries (ACE). Each ACE in an ACL identifies a trustee and specifies the access rights allowed, denied, or audited for that trustee.

The **Firewall Rules** tab shows firewall rules created during the source installation.

Due to the nature of the recording process, unwanted resources, also known as system activity or noise, might be captured into the recording result. These happen because the system is altered by the installation (or by the application, by the user, by the other applications, and by the operating system itself) during packaging in areas that are unrelated to the application and are not needed in the package. Those unwanted resources might negatively influence the installation or uninstallation of the package, or other applications and the operating system's stability, or, at least, create unneeded bloat. System activity traces and noise cleaning is required to receive good-quality packages.

When recording completed, APE applies a default exclusion list, which filters most of the unwanted system changes from the package (which need to be removed from the package).

A user can additionally exclude unwanted resources or re-include resources that were automatically excluded from the list. Such actions should only cover specific scenarios involving changes to the operating system.

The option to exclude the files from the package is available under the **context menu** or using the keyboard shortcuts **Ctrl+E** or **Del**.

The option to include the files to the package is available under the **context menu** or using the keyboard shortcut **Ctrl+I**.

The build time will depend on the number and size of the captured files and may take few minutes.

The APE finalizes when clicking the **Finish** button.

####  Transform and edit vendor MSI**

The option “Transform and edit vendor MSI” is applicable when:

- A necessity to provide changes to existing (vendor) MSI's (i.e., installation options, application configuration) appears. This means the vendor provides the source media in MSI format
- A user’s target format is also MSI.

This is also applicable when nested MSI's were found and extracted during the repackaging of a legacy setup. Any changes to the original MSI will be added by a transform file or MST; the original MSI will remain unchanged.

It is not recommended to edit vendor MSI directly or even to repackage to another MSI. Repackaging MSI to App-V by is acceptable.

The option to transform and edit the existing MSI is available under the **Review and edit vendor MSI** button.

[![pack_transf_01.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-06/scaled-1680-/9YwJXzxrlBiSZqQv-pack_transf_01.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-06/9YwJXzxrlBiSZqQv-pack_transf_01.png)

The process includes the following steps:

1\. Enter the package name;

2\. Select source files folder (**Folder** icon &gt; Navigate to source files folder &gt; **OK** button). The processing source folder may take a while.

[![wrap_9.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2023-03/scaled-1680-/Qg1BLlFQxprWnpf5-wrap_9.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2023-03/Qg1BLlFQxprWnpf5-wrap_9.png)

3\. The **Setup file**, **Install command**, and **Uninstall command** fields are filled-in automatically according to the source files

A user can change the prefilled values for these fields.

The following setup file types are available: MSI, EXE, VBS, BAT, CMD, PS1, and JS. APE selects the MSI / EXE by default. The option to select the executable file type is available when clicking the drop-down menu in the **Setup file** field. When choosing an executable file (other than MSI), install and uninstall commands must be set manually.

A user can enable [Interactive mode](https://docs.apptimized.com/link/242#bkmrk-intunewin).

Clicking the **Next** button enables proceeding to the IntuneWine package creation. APE shows the following windows when successful:

[![pack_intune_04.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-06/scaled-1680-/6curopr847NiTeRi-pack_intune_04.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-06/6curopr847NiTeRi-pack_intune_04.png)

4\. IntuneWin file generating finalizes when clicking the **Finish**

APE shows the following windows when successful:

[![packaging_01_01.png](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-06/scaled-1680-/BBXM3e0rqcHNxggB-packaging_01_01.png)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-06/BBXM3e0rqcHNxggB-packaging_01_01.png)

As a result, a user receives the IntuneWin file and text file with the install / uninstall commands, and detection method.

To finalize the packaging activities, a user must proceed to the reviewing and editing results in APE.

#### **Review and edit results**

#### **Package wrapping**

A wrapper is a set of PowerShell scripts that provides a set of functions to perform common application deployment tasks and to interact with the user during deployment activities. It provides information about the package, commands for installation, de-installation, and post configuration. Regardless of the number of installers in the package, a customer needs to run only the executing wrapper.

The option to wrap a recently produced package is available under the **Wrap package** button. The **Wrap package** button becomes available when a user has completed the packaging activities and finished the VM.

The wrap file configuration is applied when clicking the **Wrap** button. Apptimized shows the following screen:

The option to download packaging results is available under the **Download** button.

When the packaging results downloaded, a user can proceed to the next step by clicking the **Finish** button or can test the package by clicking the **Testing** tab.

### **Testing tab**

The best practice is to test packages on a clean machine, i.e. on a different VM than the one the package was created. This also applies to package iterations performed to test the impact of changes made to the package during packaging and editing, also known as trial and error. At the same time, it makes sense to keep the actual packaging machine as a reference for a working installation.

Therefore, Apptimized provides a second VM within the Packaging step under the Testing tab. It is possible to switch between the Testing and the Packaging tabs while both VM's are up and running.

Again, the **Packaging** and the **Testing** VM's act independently but share the A:\\ drive.

Whenever a clean VM is needed again (e.g., after some tests), click the **Restart** button on the **Testing** tab, and a VM will be provisioned instantly. A user can do the same on the **Packaging** tab but must be aware that this will discard "reference installation".

Apptimized shows the following screen when clicking the **Testing** tab.

## **Packaging – Factory Service**

Packaging – Factory Service characteristics:

- Apptimized packages an application for a user;
- Apptimized customizes the MSI or App-V output to meet user’s requirements;
- Apptimized contacts a user if any details are needed while packaging an application;
- Apptimized notifies a user when the application is ready for testing.

The **Packaging - Factory Service** option is available under the **Packaging - Factory Service** module in the **Transition screen**.

[![packaging_01_3.PNG](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/scaled-1680-/tKUkTfjYHlsvjRhi-packaging_01_3.PNG)](https://docs.apptimized.com/uploads/images/gallery/2020-04/tKUkTfjYHlsvjRhi-packaging_01_3.PNG)

To proceed packaging the application a user needs to create (see Discovery manual) or upload the discovery document.
