Modifying Shortcuts to the ThinApp Application’s Executable Files

AdminStudio 2024 | 27.0 | ThinApp Assistant

You define application shortcuts to enable users to launch a ThinApp application from within the virtual environment.

By default, the ThinApp Assistant creates ThinApp applications for all of the executable shortcuts that exist in your project (or Windows Installer package). These shortcuts are listed in a checklist on the Applications page.

When you select each shortcut, details about it are displayed:

List of Shortcuts for an Application

Caution:You must define at least one shortcut to enable users to launch the application from the isolation environment.

On the Applications page, you can create, delete, include, exclude, or rename ThinApp application executables, which are derived from the shortcuts in its Windows Installer package.
