Virtual applications are installed on centrally managed servers and delivered to users as a service in real time and on an as-needed basis. Users launch virtual applications from familiar access points and interact with them as if they were installed locally. With the release of Windows 10, version 1607, App-V is included with the [Windows 10 for Enterprise edition](https://www.microsoft.com/WindowsForBusiness/windows-for-enterprise). If you're new to Windows 10 and App-V, you’ll need to download, activate, and install server- and client-side components to start delivering virtual applications to users.
