Zusammenfassung:An application management server may automatically disable applications or widgets that are incompatible with a user's computing device, and automatically re-enable such applications or widgets when the user's computing device is compatible. Auto-disabled applications may be tracked in memory of a server by setting an auto-disabled status indication associated with the disabled application or widget. If an auto-disabled application or widget is upgraded or the user swaps computing devices, thereby resolving the incompatibility, the server may auto-enable such applications and widgets that were previously auto-disabled so that they may be downloaded to or used from the user's computing device. The server may recognize when a software upgrade resolves an incompatibility and prompt a computing device to initiate a synchronization process to receive the auto-enabled application or widget to the computing device or to the user's application server-based locker or profile. 本发明涉及用于启用和停用计算装置应用和窗口小部件的系统和方法。可通过设定与停用的应用
