Microsoft Application Virtualization

BigFix Software Distribution supports the distribution and management of Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) packages.

The following App-V clients and packages are supported:
  • 4.5 SP1
  • 4.5 SP2
  • 4.6 Gold (32- and 64-bit)
  • 4.6 SP1 (32- and 64-bit)
  • 5.0 Gold (32- and 64-bit)

The App-V packages distribution and management support does not need a separate Microsoft System Center App-V Management Server for streaming and metering. The Microsoft App-V Sequencer creates a virtualized application that can be distributed by using Software Distribution.

To use your App-V site, go to the License Overview dashboard under the BigFix domain in your console and enable the Client Manager for Application Virtualization site. Subscribe to this site any desktops that require an App-V client.
