Is this possible?

Well ThinApp is one the most useful programs around and as many people know it's best to run a clean system stripped down to the max.

So my question is would it be possible to add a option to actually install the software in a emulated environment provided by ThinApp? If so would it make it possible to run on a non clean system with minimal risk of corruption to the portable product?

I know it's possible to install some programs inside a sandbox. I do this for game sites with software downloads for currency because they're often packed full of complete trash.

When you say 'run on a clean system', are you referring to capturing the application on a clean system?

Hi,

Application virtualization with ThinApp is the ability of the captured application being able to run on any supported windows operating system. The captured application shall run seamlessly without any agent and it is self contained as in contains all the essential elements for it to run standalone.

The thinapped application do run on clean and unclean machines.

Do you need any additions to an existing thinapped application you may consider applinking it to the running thinapped application.
