Question 10
A company has servers that run Windows Server 2008 R2 and client computers that run 32-bit Windows 7 Enterprise. The environment includes Microsoft Application Visualization (App-V).
You plan to deploy a 64-bit only application. You need to ensure that users can run the application. The application must be automatically available on the client computers.
Which actions should you perform in sequence?
To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. (Use only actions that apply.)
Select and Place:
Correct Answer:

Explanation/Reference: REMOTEAPP
App-V or direct GPO assigning application to client computers is not feasible in this situation because client computers are 32-bits OS but the application is based on 64-bit architecture. RemoteApp is the only possible solution.
RemoteApp enables you to make programs that are accessed remotely through Remote Desktop Services appear as if they are running on the end user's local computer.These programs are referred to as RemoteApp programs. Instead of being presented to the user in the desktop of the Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) server, the RemoteApp program is integrated with the client's desktop. The RemoteApp program runs in its own resizable window, can be dragged between multiple monitors, and has its own entry in the taskbar. If a user is running more than one RemoteApp program on the same RD Session Host server, the RemoteApp program will share the same Remote Desktop Services session.
Users can access RemoteApp programs several ways. They can:
1.Access a link to the program through RemoteApp and Desktop Connection by using Remote Desktop Web Access (RD Web Access).
2.Double-click a Remote Desktop Protocol (.rdp) file that has been created and distributed by their administrator (+/- through GPO).
3.Double-click a program icon on their desktop or Start menu that has been created and distributed by their administrator with a Windows Installer (.msi) package (+/- through GPO).
4.Double-click a file where the file name extension is associated with a RemoteApp program. This can be configured by their administrator with a Windows Installer package.
