1. A machine-implemented method comprising the steps of:
- copying, from a first computer system to a persistent memory device, one or more executable files associated with a software application;
copying, from the first computer system to the persistent memory device, information associated with the software application that is used to facilitate execution of the software application;
creating an install file for overseeing installing and uninstalling the software application on a computer system other than the first computer system;
copying the install file from the first computer system to the persistent memory device;
under direction of the install file, copying at least a portion of the information associated with the software application from the persistent memory device to a second computer system; and
executing the one or more executable files associated with the software application on the second computer system directly from the persistent memory device.
