App-V applications are removed when the “Allow virtual application package advertisement” option is enabled in System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2

Consider the following scenario:

  • A Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) application is published to or advertised on a client computer of Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2.
  • The Allow virtual application package advertisement option is enabled in System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2.

In this scenario, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 removes all virtual applications that are published to the client without any warning.

This behavior is by design but to learn more and see what your options are check out the KB article below:
