Chapter 5 Configuring Package Parameters
Examples
You
can
modify
the
CachePath
parameter
to
use
an
absolute
path.
CachePath=C:\VirtCache
You
can
set
a
relative
path
that
ThinApp
detects
as
the
path
relative
to
the
directory
where
the
application
executable
file
resides.
If
the
package
resides
in
C:\VirtApps
and
the
CachePath
parameter
has
a
value
of
Cache
,
the
cache
directory
is
C:\VirtApps\Cache
.
CachePath=Cache
When
you
use
a
USB
device
and
move
the
sandbox
on
to
the
USB
device,
you
might
move
the
cache
to
the
USB
device
to
avoid
interfering
with
the
local
machine.
In
this
example,
the
cache
and
sandbox
exist
in
the
same
directory
level.
CachePath=<sandbox_path>
UpgradePath
The
UpgradePath
parameter
specifies
the
location
of
information
and
files
for
Application
Sync
and
integer
updates.
ThinApp
sets
an
initial
value
that
causes
the
Application
Sync
utility
to
place
log
and
cache
files
in
the
same
location
as
the
application
executable
file
on
the
local
machine.
Integer
updates
operate
in
the
same
way
with
files.
When
the
Application
Sync
utility
downloads
an
update
from
a
server,
it
stores
the
update
with
a
temporary
name
in
the
UpgradePath
location.
The
next
time
the
application
starts,
ThinApp
renames
the
temporary
file
with
a
.1
extension
or
a
.2 extension
depending
on
whether
.1
already
exists.
ThinApp
attempts
to
change
the
name
with
the
.1
extension
to
the
original
name
of
the
file
that
might
reside
in
another
directory.
If
ThinApp
cannot
make
this
change,
the
file
keeps
the
.1
extension
in
the
UpgradePath
location.
Running
the
original
application
accesses
that
file.
For
information
about
the
Application
Sync
utility,
see
“Application
Sync
Updates”
on
page 53.
Examples
When
the
default
location
has
limited
space,
such
as
a
USB
device,
or
you
want
to
isolate
upgrades
from
the
application
executable
file,
you
can
modify
the
UpgradePath
parameter
to
specify
another
location
to
detect
update
files.
The
parameter
can
include
environment
variables
in
the
path
but
cannot
support
folder
macros.
[BuildOptions]
UpgradePath=C:\Program Files\<my_app_upgrades>
VirtualDrives
The
VirtualDrives
parameter
specifies
additional
drive
letters
that
are
available
to
the
application
at
runtime.
ThinApp
makes
the
virtual
environment
resemble
the
physical
capture
environment
and
mimics
the
physical
drives
that
are
available
on
the
capture
system.
ThinApp
represents
virtual
drives
through
the
VirtualDrives
parameter
and
a
project
folder,
such
as
%drive_<drive_letter>%
,
that
contains
the
virtual
files
on
the
drive.
This
project
folder
can
reside
in
the
read
‐
only
file
system
of
the
package
and
in
the
sandbox
when
write
operations
cannot
occur
on
the
physical
drive.
The
VirtualDrives
parameter
presents
the
drives
to
the
application
at
runtime.
The
VirtualDrives
parameter
displays
metadata
about
the
drive,
such
as
a
the
serial
number
and
type
of
drive.
For
example,
ThinApp
detects
the
physical
C:
drive
on
the
capture
system
and
enters
it
into
the
parameter
as
a
FIXED
type
of
drive
with
the
serial
number.
