OPENING LOCAL FILES IN REMOTE APPLICATIONS

Abstract:

Disclosed are various approaches for opening local files in remotely executed applications. In one approach, a user request is received to open a local file of a client device remotely. A remotely executed application is identified to open the local file. The client device automatically transfers the local file to a remote data store accessible to the remotely executed application. The remotely executed application opens a copy of the local file from the remote data store.
