The simplest method implies pointing to a program's executable via the traditional file browser.

Might encounter bumps trying to set it up
Client connections can be setup for each program in your list. There are two methods available: creating RDP files or MSI installers (the second one requires WiX Toolset, which is another program that has to be installed separately).

Settings can be saved to file and reused in further projects.All aspects considered, RemoteApp Tool provides a convenient solution for remotely deploying any applications on other computers in your local network.
