App-V 5 and scripts in user context

Question

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out how scripting works in App-V 5, and I'm having an issue with it.
I've read
Scripting and Embedded Scripting for AppV 5.0 (Dynamic Deployment and User Configuration Scripting) and
About Scripts in App-V 5.0, but still have a question about scripting in version 5.
Via the UserConfig.xml I start a StartVirtualEnvironment and a StartProcess, just to test the behavior:  
<UserScripts> 
<StartVirtualEnvironment  RunInVirtualEnvironment="false">
  <Path>cmd.exe</Path>
  <Arguments>/c "\\servername\content$\batchtest_StartVirtualEnvironment.cmd"</Arguments>
  <Wait RollbackOnError="false"/>
</StartVirtualEnvironment> <StartProcess RunInVirtualEnvironment="false">
<Path>cmd.exe</Path>
<Arguments>/c "\\servername\content$\batchtest_StartProcess.cmd"</Arguments>
<Wait RollbackOnError="false"/>
<ApplicationId>[{AppVPackageRoot}]\7zFM.exe</ApplicationId>
</StartProcess>
</UserScripts>
This is one of the batch scripts that is triggered using the UserConfig.xml-file:
REM batchtest_StartVirtualEnvironment
echo username: %username% > c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
echo hostname: %computername% >> c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
echo userdomain: %userdomain% >> c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
echo ALLUSERSPROFILE: %ALLUSERSPROFILE% >> c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
echo USERPROFILE: %USERPROFILE% >> c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
echo APPDATA: %APPDATA% >> c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
echo LOCALAPPDATA: %LOCALAPPDATA% >> c:\temp\AppV5ScriptTest.txt
After starting the app on the client, this is the output of both batch scripts:
username: MachineName$
hostname: MachineName
userdomain: DomainName
ALLUSERSPROFILE: C:\ProgramData
USERPROFILE: C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile
APPDATA: C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming
LOCALAPPDATA: C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local
Only %userdomain% and %hostname% are correct. It seams that all other things are running in SYSTEM context? For example %AppData% isn't pointing to C:\USERS\ ..
I'm I doing something wrong here?
(I'm on Windows 7 x64 SP1 as client with App-V 5.0 RTM, sequencing machine is a Win7x86 SP1)

We experience the following:
When creating a App-V 5.0 package for a network application we receive the following error
Environment:
Windows 7 x86 Sequencer
Sequencer: 5.0.285.0
Sequencing the application
Start the sequencer
Give the package a name
Set the PVAD to C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop
Create a shortcut on the desktop to
\\server\share\application.exe
Set 3 HKLM keys in the registery under HKLM/Software/Vendor/Application
Save the package.
Results
When starting the package we receive the following error message:
Toepassingspop-up: Ats.exe - Toepassingsfout : Kan de toepassing niet correct starten (0xc0000142). Klik op OK om de toepassing te sluiten.
Also the following notification is presented in the App-V/Admin event logs:
The virtual application '\\FQDN\SHARE$\PROGRAM.exe' could not be started because the App-V Subsystem 'Virtual Shell' could not be initialized. {error: 0x8DC02325-0x5}
Seems like the same issue...
