About ThinApp Applications
AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | Automated Application Converter
VMware ThinApp 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.
ThinApp applications can be deployed on a machine without modifying the local operating system or file system. They run in a “sandbox” (or virtual environment) which protects the local operating system from installation modifications that could affect stability or security. Also, ThinApp applications can be run safely from restricted user accounts without local installation.
