• ThinApp for users in local mode

  Hello

  There are two type of ThinAPP's runtime mode

  1 - streaming

  &

  2 - mode deployment

  VMware said"deployed Executive tion mode distributes packages of virtualized applications to the system for the end user, on the island of the local system or on a USB device. In this distributed model, each client receives and executes the package locally, and therefore can run the application

  regardless of network connectivity. "Devices of end-users who are sometimes or always off line require deployed done ex mode.

  local mode does not support ThinApp, since the mode of deployment can be live even if network down, we can use it with local mode or what?

  I mean that you can install the ThinApp MSI directly. No third-party tools are required to do.

• ThinApp 7-Zip

  I'm trying 7-zip ThinApp.  Everything seems ok during the build process.  I don't get any error and can open the ThinApp in my computer to build very well.  The problem is when I assign to workstations.  Console administration view said it installs fine but when I go to open it, it looks like it didn't settle down completely and gives an error file missing.  Someone has seen this before or know some tricks to get this working?  I can use the built ThinApp MSI and install fine.   I use ThinApp 5.0 and this is not on Windows 7 x 64

  Thanks for your suggestions.

  I had to ThinApp the 32-bit version of 7-zip so that it works.

• Update MSI code

  Our company uses a MRP program that should have an installation for each location, we have in our Terminal servers. In other words, they all have the same upgrade code, but I want them to be unique to one another. Basically, I was hoping just to generate my own unique code for these applications, so I can use the function of upgrade msi for all versions of this application, I have create in thinapp. Is it still possible?

  Hello

  Yes, you can very well use your own unique GUID. You want to have the same "ProductCode" through all the different versions?

  Please take a look at what will help you:

• Run ThinApp Package via hyperlink?

  Is it possible to run an application ThinApp packaged through a hyperlink?  I want my users to be able to visit a web page and then click on a link to start the application.

  At this moment I have a hyperlink that points to my package ThinApp .exe file, however when I click on the link, the .exe file is attempted to be executed, but I think it's having issues finding / interacting with the .dat associate file which is located with the .exe file.

  Is there a best practice to achieve this?

  Thank you!

  You can run a ThinApp package since a hyperlink if it has a .dat with the EXE file. Either, you will need to download the .dat to the same location (temporary folder) of the ThinApp EXE. Or you can publish the hyperlink for the ThinApp MSI that installs the ThinApp when the user click on the hyperlink and say 'run '.

  On the other hand, ThinApp supports running from a network share if you want to try.

• Add Thindirect to IE6 Thinapp package

  Hello

  I have a small problem, but I don't how I can solve it...

  I have a package with several parameters thinapp IE6 but thindirect does not turn on.

  If I want to add Thindirect to this package, how is it possible?

  Thank you all

  Just to add, you must either install IE6 ThinApp MSI or save the ThinApp IE6 use utility Thinreg to see the redirect. Without having to install the MSI or ThinReg, you do not find the redirect occurs.

  For example, install IE6 ThinApp MSI, open native IE (IE7 or 8, for example) and type a URL in the ThinDirect.txt file. You will see that the native IE closes and virtual EI (ThinApp) opens in a new window.

• MSI upgrade fails.

  When I run an upgrade with a newly repackaged MSI, I get the following error: Impossible to create the target file. File

  If I remove the contents of the directory program files (where the installation ends upwards) and try again it works very well...

  Any thoughts... ? (Looks like the thinapp msi are not properly uninstall..)

  Paul

  It turns out that file names short pain generated .msi ThinApp used when deleting files. This will be fixed in a future release.

• Differentiation between virtual App and Native application

  Hello team,

  Wanted to know how the difference between a virtual application and the local physical application. Y at - it any key or variable registry system available which can help identify the virtual when its application was managed by the end user during execution. Are there any files and registry system for virtual applications?

  For example: from online Cameyo/ThinApp/spoon streaming server, I downloaded firefox.exe virtualized and thus downloaded mozilla's physical firefox.exe and installed (Version remains the same for the application). For physical firefox.exe there is the registry key or a variable system available.

  How about the application virtual firefox.exe, will there be an entry in the system registry or files during its execution?

  If Yes please share the details.

  You have different ways to determine if the application was packaged with ThinApp.

  • When you run a ThinApp application, you have the popup appears above the system tray in the lower right corner with the name of the application and "vmware".

  

  • When you have installed the application with the MSI or save it with the thinreg utility, you have created registry keys:
    • If installed by user: HKCU\Software\Thinstall
    • If installed by computer: HKLM\Software\Thinstall
  • A sandbox is also created for the application during its first execution in %APPDATA%\Thinstall (default location).
  • If you run the package with the setting -ThinstallVersion. For example, in a CMD prompt type: package.exe - ThinstallVersion.

  You will get the ThinApp version used to build the package.

  

  • If you need to determine if the application was packaged with ThinApp of more "automatic" or "script", use the software ThinApp SDK. Look for example here: http://www.horizonflux.com/getting-started-with-thinapp-sdk-and-powershell/

• Attach the extension 2007 Word

  Hello guys,.

  I thinapped today for the first time an apllication, office 2007.

  We use zenworks application management via a shortcut I point word2007.exe, so users launch office thinapps

  from a network share.

  The first problem I discovered is that when I open Excel2007.exe, I have to wait for before 25seconds opening the app... seems to be
  The second problem; When I save a file on the local disk, Excel2007 does not open the file I saved. How can I

  change the thinapped excel or word2007.exe to connect all the .docx or .xlsx files to open them automatically?

  Kind regards

  Alternatively, you can use the ThinApp MSI that registers the ThinApp automatically when you install the MSI file.

• Error 1925 you don't have sufficient privileges to perform this installation...

  I created an IE7 thinapp msi some of our users need to use a particular web application. From the test to the deployment, the following error message appears: Error 1925: you don't have sufficient privileges to complete this installation for all users of the machine. Log in as administrator and then try to install again. I have the MSIRequireElevatedPrivileges set to 0. Is there anything else I need to set to allow anyone to install this application? Thank you.

  Can you check by setting = 0 MSIDefaultInstallAllUsers? Make sure that you rebuild the package using build.bat

• Server reboots

  Let's say I have packaging an application that requires a reboot. ThinApp will take it out of the game once I have create a msi file and install it on the server? Or will the ThinApp pkg restart my server.

  While you are in the installation and configure the section "Setup Capture"... ThinApp will automatically load the next time you start... on however several reboots are needed.  It will be active as long as the changes are made and the application is properly installed.  You can then press next and continue the process.

  Regarding a ThinApp MSI... the MSI does not require a reboot during installation.  do not forget that it is unpacked only data in a folder, putting some shortcuts in and a few registry changes.

• ThinApp 4.6 cannot generate the msi package

  ThinApp 4.6 question, I can't undestand why, but I am unable to create the .msi package. The error comes at the end of the phase of construction for any application! no problem with 4.5, but you now I need the functionality of Streaming... so I'm stuck.

  creating the file .exe like no problem, but the creation of the .msi fails with the error "cannot find destination path /bin/whatever.msi" (and the .msi file created is obviously unusable)

  Any suggestions?

  @kkware - excuses... did not read your message first.  This looks like an AV problem almost.  That would be my first guess.

  If you have any software firewall or AV, can you delete those virtual machine (take a snapshot of the VM) or turn them off temporarily?

• Requirements for the ThinApps stream?

  Hello

  I try to use ThinApps continuous using View4.5. But streaming is always greyed out outside in the view manager.

  What are the requirements for the ThinApps to be listened to when assinged via View Manager?

  Take a look at this: http://myvirtualcloud.net/?p=1164, you need a MSI package and the following text in the file Package.ini.
