What is App-V?

Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) is an application virtualization and application streaming solution. It allows applications to be deployed, updated, and supported as services from a centrally managed server, without being installed directly on end-user devices. This reduces conflicts, simplifies management, and improves compatibility. Applications run in isolated virtual environments.
