Manually Configure Registry Settings
Instead of configuring an XML file that determines the behavior of the VDX Engine, configure this behavior by configuring registry settings on the machine where the VDX Engine is installed.
Configure registry settings at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Ivanti\VDX Engine to store settings that are specific to the local computer.
Configure registry settings at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ivanti\VDX Engine to store settings that are specific to the currently logged-in user.
The following registry settings are available to control the behavior of the VDX Engine:
