Windows¶
Requirements¶
The supported Windows versions are Windows 10 or later, and Windows Server 2016 or later.
Installing the Windows client¶
To install the client on a Windows machine, unpack the client bundle and
enter the client-windows
directory. Then click on the file
tl-x.y.z-client-windows.exe
and follow the instructions.
You will also find unpacked versions of the ThinLinc Windows client,
both 32-bit and 64-bit, under the tl-x.y.z-client-windows-x86
and tl-x.y.z-client-windows-x64
directories. It makes it
possible to run the client directly from the bundle or other media, like
a portable application, without the requirement of installing the
client.
For more information about how to configure the client, read Configuration storage.
Unattended installation¶
The ThinLinc client can also be installed or upgraded silently (without
the graphical installation wizard). This is done by adding the
/S
switch when running the installer:
.\tl-x.y.z-client-windows.exe /S
This is useful when installing the ThinLinc client remotely. Similarly,
the /S
switch can also be passed to uninstall.exe
to silently uninstall the ThinLinc client.
Running the Windows client¶
During installation the ThinLinc client will be added to the Start menu. To start the client you select it from the Start menu.
