For example, the Licensing and Activation process can be a royal pain in the rear. It's worth acknowledging that some of these issues are a pain regardless if you use application virtualization or not. This also means when the client needs upgrading, you can merely publish a new version of the ThinApp. One simple remedy to this process is to create a ThinApp of the client.

ThinApp the View client: If you think about it, one of the challenges of deploying View is that a client needs to be installed to a physical PC.

These can often be configured to be cached like Web browsers cache files to speed the application when it is next used. In other words, it downloads to the client just the files it needs as it needs them.

Network streaming: Most application virtualization will "stream" itself if delivered over a network location.

In other words, there is no need to install a special client at the destination where the ThinApp will run: A ThinApp is an entirely separate and independent.

ThinApps: One key advantage of ThinApp is that virtualization allows for total encapsulation.

Often you carry your applications around on a memory stick and execute them anywhere because they work within their own "sandbox".

App-on-a-stick: Application virtualization is not limited to virtual desktops.

Keeping virtual desktops lean and mean: Keeping your virtual desktop merely an environment to execute programs rather than storing those applications locally in C:Program Files.

Same app, different versions: The ability to run different versions of the same application in the same Windows environment.

Less conflicts between one application and another.

There are many benefits to application virtualization, including:
