Deleting an application or desktop

  1. When deleting Cloudpaged apps, it is important to follow all steps in order to avoid errors. If the appset (.stp) is removed from the repository before removing it via the AppsAnywhere and Cloudpaging Server, a support call will be required to resolve the resulting error.

  2. Be careful not to load up the "New Virtualized Application" option or click the new application "Refresh" button in AppsAnywhere while you are in the process of removing Cloudpaged applications. This will upload any applications in the repository waiting to be uploaded, which may include the one you are trying to remove.
