Do you mean packaging without installing the application? May i know what is the use-case please.

It would create two empty folders, one in: %userprofile% and other in: %Programdata%.

It´s possible?

Yes. After Prescan, create the empty folders and continue for Postscan. Select the entry point for cmd.exe to complete the empty package.

I've done it and when you do thinreg the folders can not see.

That is an expected behaviour. Thinreg will not merge the ThinApp folder contents into the local physical system. Have you checked into the sandbox?

In the sandbox just create a folder called "cmd"

If you want to create just some folders on the physical machine or sandbox, i would suggest to use VB script.
