Hi,

below cmd step adds Cisco installer path to target pc registry and app will be installed in Win7 compatibility mode in next step. %cd% will add full path to installer file, depends wher it will be (service-1 or service-2 etc):

reg.exe ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers"  /v "%cd%\Cisco Unified CCX Historical Reports.msi" /t REG_SZ /d WIN7RTM /f

Anyway, works great but can this command be converted to powershell, meaning I dont know how to put %cd% to work correctly:

New-Item 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers' -Force | New-ItemProperty -Name "$(Get-Location)\Cisco Unified CCX Historical Reports.msi" -Value WIN7RTM -Force | Out-Null

But $(Get-Location) working correctly only from local pc but not from Deploy.

Result of both commands from Deploy:

    For this I recommend substituting $(Get-Location) with $pwd. $pwd = present working directory and should be the exact same as Get-Location.
