Modifying the MSI that ThinApp generate

I’m being asked quite frequently if there is a way to add functionality to the MSI file that ThinApp generates. Yes there is, besides the obvious of modifying the MSI file in a MSI editor you may want to always change its behavior to reflect a company standard.

From the manual:
In the Vmware ThinApp folder you will find the file Template.msi. You can customize this template to ensure the .msi files generated by ThinApp adhere to company deployment procedures and standards. For example, you can add registry settings that you want ThinApp to add to client computers as part of the installation.

Even though it is in the manual not many seems to find it..
