Recursive registration of ThinApp packages Usage: RecursiveReg.vbs <FolderName> RecursiveReg will register all ThinApp entry points in FolderName and in any subfolders The registration will be per-user. Any entry points to which the user no longer has access (because of the PermittedGroups setting) and which are already registered will be automatically unregistered. Since this is based on the ThinApp SDK you'll obviously need ThinAppSDK.dll/ThinAppSDKSrvr.exe present and registered (using regsvr32) on the system. License: do whatever you like with it, but don't blame me or VMware. More formally: VMware Contributed Sample Code.pdf

I've seen a number of requests to add a "silent" switch to the ThinApp  AppSync.exe utility. Well, a completely silent AppSync can be performed  using the ThinApp SDK. This script takes the name of a ThinApp primary  data container and a URL as parameters, just like the AppSync.exe  utility. It will perform an update (if there's an update available), the  only feedback is via its exit code: 0 - Package was updated 1 - No update available 2 - Error occured Since this is based on the ThinApp SDK you'll obviously need  ThinAppSDK.dll/ThinAppSDKSrvr.exe present and registered (using  regsvr32) on the system. It shouldn't be difficult to extend this sample to run AppSync on a whole directory (or directory tree) of virtual apps. License:  do whatever you like with it, but don't blame me or VMware.
