Issue where potentially non-layered apps might launch slow when DIA's are present

Problem:

Issue where potentially non-layered apps might launch slow when DIA's are present.  This will require additional items for exclusion be added to the VirtFsService.exe.config.

Possible Resolution(s)

The FlexApp UIA service needs to be modified to ignore client.exe on launch

1. From the \\server\netlogon\ProfileUnity (or the share you have the ProfileUnity client delivered from) copy the file flexapp.zip to your folder on your local desktop.

2. Open/extract the file ContainerService\x64\VirtFsService.exe.config from the flexapp.zip archive.
3. Open the file VirtFsService.exe.config in a text editor and add the following line(s) under the <setting name="IgnoredProcesses" serializeAs="Xml"> section of the file

<string>winword.exe</string>
<string>excel.exe</string>
<string>POWERPNT.exe</string>
<string>outlook.exe</string>
