Abstract
A virtual server includes at least one processor to create a single composited layered image comprising an operating system layer and an application shortcut that includes a representation of an application while not including the application. The single composited layered image is provided as a virtual session to a client computing device. An application layer is mounted to the single composited layered image in response to a user of the client computing device interacting with the application shortcut, with the application layer including the application.
