  • Activation of an application based on prior activation of an isolated counterpart application
    Patent number: 10839050
    Abstract: A system activates an application on a computing device based on a prior activation of an isolated counterpart application on the computing device. An application that is restricted from sharing a license with a counterpart application locally on the computing device is enabled to instead communicate with an application license manager to manage license data corresponding to the counterpart application. For example, when a license is obtained at the computing device for a container application, the application license manager may update license data in association with a native application so that a counterpart license can be obtained automatically by the native application, and vice versa. Thus, once a user has responded to an activation prompt for either one of the container application or the native application, whichever application the user has not manually activated will be automatically activated at the computing device based on communications with the application license manager.
