Sharing and Management of Transferable Virtual Desktop

A computer system for sharing virtualized computers by a plurality of users, comprising:

• a communication module configured to receive data for setting a first computer profile of an original virtual computer from a first user at a computing device, the computer profile representing information about properties and characteristics of the original virtual computer;
• a virtual desktop application configured to receive the data from the communication module, the virtual desktop application further configured to:
• create a replicated virtual computer of the original virtual computer on the computing device by replicating the computer profile responsive to receiving a request from a second user to access the replicated virtual computer;
• and
• perform operations associated with the replicated virtual computer on the computing device responsive to receiving a first input from the second user.

A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions thereon, the instructions when executed by a processor in a computing device, cause the processor to:

• receive data for setting a first computer profile of an original virtual computer from a first user, the computer profile representing information about properties and characteristics of the original virtual computer;
• create a replicated virtual computer of the original virtual computer on the computing device by replicating the computer profile responsive to receiving a request from a second user to access the replicated virtual computer;
• and
• perform operations associated with the replicated virtual computer on the computing device responsive to receiving an input from the second user.
