I am currently researching new technologies for our company’s development road map and saw that Silverlight 3 has the ability to install an application on the client’s desktop.
Is this feature a full or partial emulation of a WinForms application and does it provide the ability to access all or limited local resources on the client’s computer?
The Silverlight 3 Getting Started page lists some details. Scroll down near the bottom and read the details under “Out of Browser Capabilities”. It says that Silverlight 3 applications are sandboxed and, while they have access to persistent storage, this storage is separate from the regular file system.
