    Abstract: Various examples for providing multiple instances of a client application in operating systems that limit execution of the client application to a single process are disclosed. A client device can include an operating system natively configured to generate a single process for an execution of the client application on the client device. A client application can be configured to, in the single process, generate sub-processes for execution of separate instances of the client application. The client application can include at least one user interface that permits creation of, termination of, or toggling between various instances of the client application.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for causing functions provided by a remote browser to be executed when functions provided by a local browser are requested. For example, a local BHO can intercept a request for the local browser to perform a navigation function. When the navigation function is designated to be provided by the remote browser, the local BHO can (1) prevent the local browser from performing the navigation function and (2) send a communication to a remote BHO to cause the remote browser to perform the navigation function. The remote BHO can cause representations of webpages to be sent to the local browser without visual representations of functions provided by the remote browser. By not having such visual representations, the local BHO can use visual representations from the local browser as visual representations of functions provided by the remote browser.
