The GPO files work on domain controllers that run in the following environments:Īdministrative Template files contain markup language that is used to describe a registry-based Group Policy. With these template files you can reconfigure group policy settings for applications that were packaged by ThinApp. Group Policy Administrative Templates ThinApp 5.1 introduces the group policy administrative template If a package is managed by a group policy, ThinApp gives precedence to the policy over its Package.ini configuration.

VMWARE THINAPP 5.1.1 INSTALL

When you install ThinApp 5.1, a new folder named Policy is created in the installation directory. Each package to be managed must have an associated group policy defined using its inventory name. ThinApp Package management helps IT administrators manage ThinApp packages and define group policy for each package. Using the new ThinApp package management feature, you can dynamically reconfigure the attributes of deployed ThinApp packages at runtime. In earlier versions of ThinApp, to change some specific Package.ini parameters, you had to first make those changes in the configuration file, save the file, and rebuild the package.
