VMware ThinApp Blog

Get ready for application virtualization with VMware ® ThinApp ® !

If you are new to ThinApp I would encourage you to start learning the concept of Isolation Modes. It is a must in order to fully master ThinApp.

I have produced a VMware KBTV broadcast that just got released. It will take 13 minutes of your life but worth every second of it.

Please let me know any other topics of interest, and I promise to keep the videos in original SwEnglish coming. Send me topics on Twitter @thepeb or ping me via our community http://communities.vmware.com/people/pbjork

I'm often being asked if a ThinApped application honors GPOs (Group Policy Objects). The answer is yes and no. It is up to you as the packager.

Since understanding what the Isolation Modes will do to your package and the differences between them is essentials to be successful with ThinApp I put together a whiteboard video. I hope you find it useful.

Here are some of the more common System32 DLLs that we've had to manually add to ThinApp projects in order to get the ThinApp packaged application to work correctly on different operating systems.
