MSI Utility for Microsoft Application Virtualization

The MSI Utility for Microsoft Application Virtualization extends virtual application deployment options when a SoftGrid Virtual Application Server is not available. The MSI Utility enables the distribution of virtual applications without streaming using SoftGrid 4.1 SP1 or SoftGrid 4.2, providing a bridge to the richer deployment scenarios offered by Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5. Specifically, the MSI Utility uses Windows Installer to load and configure virtual applications, extending deployment methods to ESD systems as well as other methods such as network shares, removable disks, and memory keys.

This release also includes support for Windows 2003 Terminal Services!
