ThinPC makes it easy to turn existing PCs into locked
down devices acting as a Thin-Client. The standard
Windows desktop and start menu will be prevented from
appearing. ThinPC includes the many features and
benefits: (1) Re-purpose the PC, avoiding the cost of
buying a new PC or Thin Client , (2) Eliminate non
work related computer usage, (3) increasing end user
productivity, (4) Simple method to lock down a PC,
reducing desktop administration.
How does it work?
ThinPC prevents the Windows Explorer Shell from
running on startup. In place of the standard Explorer
Shell, a USER PANEL set by the Administrator becomes
the only available user interface. In the event of any
program terminating, the USER PANEL is immediately re-
launched by ThinPC.
A common scenario is to restrict the desktop to
running thin client software for Citrix ICA or
Microsoft RDP connecting to a terminal server or
virtual machine. ThinPC requires no server footprint
or management tools. It can be deployed by any method
