Restoring Application and Windows Settings Synchronized with UE-V 1.0

  • Article

WMI and PowerShell features of Microsoft User Experience Virtualization (UE-V) provide the ability to restore settings packages. WMI and PowerShell commands allow you to restore application and Windows settings to the settings values that were on the computer the first time the application launched after the UE-V Agent was installed. This restoring action is performed on a per-application or Windows settings basis. The settings are restored the next time that the application is run or when the user logs on to the operating system.

  1. Open the Windows PowerShell window. To import the Microsoft UE-V PowerShell module, enter the following command:

    Import-module UEV

  2. Enter the following PowerShell cmdlet to restore the application settings and Windows settings.
