I have never used Application Virtualization before. Here are some screenshots from my installation:<\/p>\n<p>When i started the installer it needed to install some required components:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/45.63.48.66\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/071410_2041_TestingAppV1.png\" alt=\"\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>All required software was installed and then the installer for App V presented itself:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/45.63.48.66\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/071410_2041_TestingAppV2.png\" alt=\"\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I choose the typical install (as per the documentation):<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/45.63.48.66\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/071410_2041_TestingAppV3.png\" alt=\"\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>That all finished within a few seconds. Next step is setup some stored credentials for virtualized applications to use.
