Creating ThinApp Applications

AdminStudio 2025 R2 | 30.0 | ThinApp Assistant

note

ThinApp support requires a separate purchase of VMware® ThinApp™.

ThinApp (formerly Thinstall Virtualization Suite) is a self-contained application virtualization solution that requires no client-side agents or supporting server infrastructure. A ThinApp application runs within a virtual environment that prevents it from interfering with other software running on the same machine.

You can use the InstallShield ThinApp Assistant to configure and build a ThinApp application. Information about creating ThinApp applications using the ThinApp Assistant is presented in the following sections:
