Abstract
The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, a method that includes receiving, by a host server providing a remote desktop environment to a client device, a request from the client device to execute an application, selecting a first terminal server to execute the application, initiating execution of the application on the first terminal server, determining that the application is to be transferred to a second terminal server, determining identifiers of storage locations of one or more application files that are opened by a user of the client device in relation to the application, causing execution of the application on the first terminal server to be terminated; and initiating execution of the application on the second terminal server using the identifiers of the storage locations of the one or more application files.
