So, I have always been recommending that people don’t rely too much – if at all – on accurateness of App-V’s built-in license enforcement features (for which you need App-V’s own full infrastructure to begin with), unless having very constrained environment like terminal servers or fixed workstations. And I still seem to be right on […]

The gist of the article is that it […]
