VMware Releases ThinApp 4.5 for Windows 7

VMware has recently unveiled the newest iteration of its popular application virtualization tool, ThinApp 4.5, designed specifically for Windows 7 operating systems. This latest release aims to streamline application deployment and simplify migration by isolating applications from their underlying operating systems, eliminating conflicts and making management a breeze.

One of the key features in this new version is the ForcedVirtualLoadPaths parameter, which allows external system DLL files that rely on DLL files within the package to be loaded as virtual DLLs without utilizing API functions. Additionally, users can leverage the Setup Capture wizard or QualityReportingEnabled parameter to aid VMware in building support for applications and facilitate a smoother transition to virtual environments.

To further enhance performance, ThinApp 4.5 introduces the OptimizeFor parameter, which works in tandem with the CompressionType parameter to customize memory usage and startup times. This results in reduced memory consumption and page file usage, leading to faster startup times.

Another notable feature is the relink.exe utility, which enables users to update existing packages without having to rebuild them. ThinApp 4.5 also includes version updates that incorporate the latest features and support enhancements, ensuring a seamless experience for users.

ThinApp 4.5 supports Windows Server 2008 R2, as well as both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 7 operating systems. The tool's compatibility with these popular platforms makes it an attractive option for businesses seeking to standardize their application deployment processes.

The new version also includes various improvements aimed at enhancing usability and performance, such as product interface updates that provide easier access to video and documentation resources. Furthermore, the ForcedVirtualLoadPaths parameter allows users to load external system DLL files without using API functions, making it a valuable tool for developers and IT professionals.

In addition to these enhancements, ThinApp 4.5 includes German and Japanese versions of the User's Guide to cater to a broader range of users. Overall, this latest release solidifies VMware's position as a leading player in the application virtualization market, offering businesses a reliable and efficient solution for managing their software applications.
