Abstract
A control method including performing control, based on a predetermined program being running in a second operation environment, in a second information processing apparatus so that a predetermined process is not performed and performing second execution to perform, based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, in the second information processing apparatus, a process relating to another program that is different from the predetermined program and controls a standard scan function pre-installed in a host OS is provided to solve an issue.
Claims19
A control method for controlling a second information processing apparatus including a predetermined program that is configured to run on an operating system (OS) and causes a computer of a first information processing apparatus having a first operation environment being on a first OS running as a host OS but not being on a guest OS to perform, based on the predetermined program being running in the first operation environment, a predetermined process of transmitting a scan job generated by the predetermined program to a communication apparatus, and having a second operation environment being on a second OS running as the host OS and being on the guest OS, the control method comprising:
- performing, based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, control so that the predetermined process is not performed;
- and
- performing, based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, a process relating to another program that is different from the predetermined program and controls a standard scan function pre-installed in the host OS.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a predetermined program that is configured to run on an OS and causes a computer of a first information processing apparatus having a first operation environment being on a first OS running as a host OS but not being on a guest OS to perform, based on the predetermined program being running in the first operation environment, a predetermined process of transmitting a scan job generated by the predetermined program to a communication apparatus, the predetermined program causing a computer of a second information processing apparatus having a second operation environment being on a second OS running as the host OS and being on the guest OS to perform:
- based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, control so that the predetermined process is not performed;
- and
- based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, a process relating to another program that is different from the predetermined program and controls a standard scan function pre-installed in the host OS.
A second information processing apparatus including a predetermined program that is configured to run on an OS and causes a computer of a first information processing apparatus having a first operation environment being on a first OS running as a host OS but not being on a guest OS to perform, based on the predetermined program being running in the first operation environment, a predetermined process of transmitting a scan job generated by the predetermined program to a communication apparatus, and having a second operation environment being on a second OS running as the host OS and being on the guest OS, the second information processing apparatus comprising:
- a control unit configured to perform, based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, control so that the predetermined process is not performed;
- and
- a performance unit configured to perform, based on the predetermined program being running in the second operation environment, a process relating to another program that is different from the predetermined program and controls a standard scan function pre-installed in the host OS.
