Dear denash1,

you're welcome

Hi, gaforhad
Thinstall is very expensive, about $5000, but you can get a 30-day trial demo from the Thinstall site.

They ask for your "company information" (I put that I'm self-employed) and

A valid, company email address is required
(no hotmail/yahoo/gmail/etc will be accepted).

I still haven't actually used the software yet.

Features:

* Application isolation. Isolated applications run in a virtual bubble in restricted user accounts without requiring any host modification. Deploy Office 97, 2003, 2007, and .NET applications on the same OS without conflict as the applications run independent of one another.
* Zero-runtime execution. With no installed agent, no footprint is left on the endpoint device. Applications run directly from the compressed state without first caching data to the hard disk, achieving better performance and security of data.
* 100% User Mode execution. Client runs on locked-down, unmanaged “kiosk” PCs without Admin rights to execute applications, enabling it to be used on managed and unmanaged PC.
* Block-by-block network streaming. Applications virtualized execute once the minimum amount of code required to run the application is available in the desktop’s memory. For example, less than 10% of Microsoft Office needs to be physically streamed to the client in order for it to run. LAN streaming has an average start-up time of just a few seconds.
* Sandbox environments for terminal services. Provide sandboxing for applications running in a terminal services environment so that multiple users can run their own sandboxed application without affecting each other. If one instance of the application tries to make system-wide changes, other users running the same applications are not affected.
* 64-bit operating system support. Enables applications to be virtualized and run on 64-bit systems.
* Execution on thin clients. Tested and certified to run virtualized applications on Windows XP-based thin clients.
* Compatibility with a broad range of applications. Proven deployments on simple-to-complex applications ranging from basic Microsoft Office to custom applications with Java or .NET.

Just a simple info.

Old thread update:

Just a bit of history in the space of "whatever happened to" ...

ThinApp (AKA Thinstall) is a commercial portability option that aimed at easy software distribution for medium to large companies. It was purchased by VMware in 2008 and renamed to ThinApp. Because of the tendency to be used for piracy it is unwelcome on PortableApps.

I'm mostly posting this because I did a thread merge of a lot of ancient posts and figured this deserved some kind of explanation.

That specific post was about a user who had made a portable package of Thinstall without permission from the publisher in violation of its EULA. The wider issue was that IIRC the Thinstall folks had a directory of packaged apps almost none of which were done with permission from the publisher.
