This topic specifies the requirements to install and run App-V in your Windows 10 environment. For information about prerequisite software such as the .NET Framework, see App-V Prerequisites.
App-V Server system requirements
This section lists the operating system and hardware requirements for all of the App-V server components.
Unsupported App-V server scenarios
The App-V server does not support the following scenarios:
