This leads to a number of issues including incompatibility between two applications installed on the same OS instance. Microsoft Application Virtualization addresses these issues de-coupling as applications from the physical environment and enabling them to be virtualized and streamed to the client. In this session we’ll talk about the new version of Application Virtualization; App-V 4.6. We’ll discuss the changes in this new version, including how it works better with Windows 7 and Office 2010.
