Update - vSphere Client 4.1 Update 1 is now released. Run vSphere client 4.1 in a snap. No install, just download the EXE and double-click. Place the ThinApped vSphere client on any network share and it will automatically stream to any Windows PC with no installation, agents, drivers, or specialized servers required. Carry ThinApped vSphere client and your customization on USB stick and now your vSphere client is available on the GO! This fling uses VMware ThinApp to package vSphere Client into a single portable EXE giving you instant access to your virtual infrastructure from any computer. ThinApp has been used by corporate administrators to deploy thousands of applications to millions of desktops. Use VMware ThinApp to create your own virtualized applications, for more information visit the VMware ThinApp page and watch the ThinApp Blog.

With VMware ThinApp, applications are packaged into single executables that run completely isolated from each other and the operating system for conflict-free execution on end-point devices.

Thinapp vSphere Client requires .NET framework 2 or 3. If you are running Windows XP or Windows 2003, you will need .NET Framework 2.0 or .NET Framework 3.0.

Thinapp is compatible with  Windows (32/64 bit) and support the following versions :

  • Windows XP
  • Windows 2000
  • Windows 2003
  • Windows Vista
  • Windows 7

    This package collects and sends anonymous QA reports to VMware. Information collected is explained in the image below:

  • QA Stats Disabled

    You can download this package which does no reporting.

Run vSphere client in a snap. No install, just download the EXE and doubleclick. Carry ThinApped vSphere client and your customization on USB stick and now your vSphere client is available on the GO!

Comments

  1. Both Versions

    Dan B
    says:

    Could you please retain the download links for BOTH the v4 and v5 thinapped versions of the vSphere client, some of us need to administrate both 4.1 and 5.0 ESXi servers and having thinapped versions of both clients would be a real plus.

    • Dave B says:

      Agreed, either make both versions available because the thinapped 5.0 client won't allow me to connect to 4.1 ESX or build it in such a way that we only need to use one version of Thinapped Vsphere that connects to different versions of vCenter Server.

  2. Linux Client

    Martin
    says:

    For a sake. We need damn Linux client (java/web based - whatever). It's really stupid run crappy Windows in VirtualBox to administer ESXi.

  3. Publish to View

    Brad
    says:

    exe works well but how can we publish this to View clients?

    I guess I have to thinapp it myself :(

    • Aaron Black says:

      We chose to distribute EXE because likely to be used by Admins who just want to run and not install. For distributing to View Desktops you could just stream into desktops with shortcut created by group policy or script to thinreg

  4. Wine or java

    jelabarre
    says:

    Really, thinapp or not, we need a Linux solution for managing vsphere systems. At this stage there is no excuse for not having a management client that runs under Linux

  5. Plans for vSphere 5 ThinApp ?

    Simon Sparks
    says:

    Are there any plans for vSphere 5 ThinApp in the near future?

  6. How hard can it be????

    Tom
    says:

    to ThinApp each vCenter vSphere Client??
    VMware, *you* invented ThinApp, please *use* it as people have requested.
    There's really no excuse for you not distributing ThinApped vSphere clients as the STANDARD distro rather than the clumsy bulky installer.
    Please just do it -- one ThinApped client for each 4.x U# edition and one ThinApped client for each 5.x U# edition.
    Thank you, Tom

  7. ThinApped vSphere Client v5.

    Ike Nwosa
    says:

    Any plans for vSphere Thinapped client for vSphere 5.0?
    Keen to see this happen, no more installation worries.

  8. Linux & Mac vSphere client?

    Luke
    says:
    Another vote for a Linux and/or Mac OS X vSphere client.

    I'm currently running it in a VirtualBox VM on my laptop, to access my organization's vSphere infrastructure. I tried running the vSphere C... Show more

    • Mike says:

      YES! This is un-freaking-believable that no Linux or Mac client exists! It's INSANE that I have to maintain a Windows PC just to be able to administer my virtualized Linux server farm.

  9. Thin vSphere client 4.1 U2?

    Michael
    says:

    We REALLY NEED thinappped vSphere client 4.1 U2!

  10. ThinApped vSphere 4.1 U1 Clien

    Calvin
    says:

    What about including the Update Manager plug-in with the ThinApped vSphere 4.1 U1 Client?

  11. VC CLient 5.0 + plugins

    Not every time IE and Firefox are an option, because the ie is selfcustomized and very restricted by the custommer.

  12. vShpere v5.0 Client Request

    Sean
    says:

    Any news on a vSphere client v5.0? It has been awhile now and would really like to have this.

    • M_VdM says:

      And while you guys are at IT ... can you please make sure that it's WINE compatible ???

      I have a dream: ThinApped vSpere Client 5.0 running under WinOnX !?!

      That would please a whole lot of Mac users !

  13. Windows 8 DP

    Russ Neufeld
    says:

    Hey - this is great! Thanks!
    Got me back into ESXi hosts from Windows 8 Developer Preview (standard 4.1 client wouldn't install).

    • Russ Neufeld says:

      Spoke too soon - quit working after a reboot? Very odd... so close.

  14. Wow...

    Jason
    says:

    ...a whole 10 days before it's useless again! GREAT!!!!

    In all seriousness, why can't they release this along with the new versions/update? I have a vender that cannot get their act together and move they're software to services, so the users are required to log in with the console. This would help greatly when updates come out.

    .... and they are USERS, they can't use a browser....

  15. 4.1 Update 2

    Update 2
    says:

    Could we please get 4.1 Update 2 version of the vSphere Client ?

    • Michael says:

      Any plan for a 4.1 U2 release? My customer's slooowwww vsphere client deployment cycle is preventing us from upgrading to 4.1 U2 on vCenter and hosts...

  17. No Linux client, WHY???

    KM Khan
    says:

    This is very strange, specially when you look at vmware's past. But its all about $$$ I guess. I'm really disappointed!!!

    • Andy Barnes says:
      Hi KM Khan,
      VMware have released the vSphere web client with vSphere 5.0 which allows vSphere to be managed from IE and Firefox supported browsers - opening up management from Linux.
      Essentially thi... Show more
  18. Thinapped vSphere Client 5

    Chris G
    says:

    Now that i'm all gun-ho for 5 after VMworld..... Any idea on a update for this for ESXi/vSphere 5?
    It'd be pretty sweet to use this with our new installation of the ESXi 5 environment.

    Heck, I guess I could thinapp it myself but I've honestly been too lazy.

  19. vSphere Client for Linux

    Yuri
    says:

    Dear Developers, we're all looking forward for Linux version of vSphere Client... It so awful that we need to look for a windows machine to make some management tasks.. Among system administrators non-Windows OSes are more popular and obviously we need this software for all major platforms incl Mac and Linux.

  20. New Build Would be Nice, but..

    Toby Fruth
    says:
    If asked to guess, I would say that preparations for VMWorld have placed any update for this fling on the back burner. I created a package of this application on my own using ThinApp and found it be ... Show more
  21. new Build?

    Tim
    says:

    Any chance of getting the new build... seems like the idea kind of died.

  22. 4.1U1

    Bryan
    says:

    Where til find thinapp for 4.1U1 ? :(

  23. Thinapped vSphere Client 4.1U1

    Kimber
    says:

    Is there any update to Thinapped vSphere Client 4.1 U1? I didn't realize this wasn't the latest build and have now upgraded my hosts and vcenter server. Much appreciated. Thanks

  24. all vSphere clients thinapped

    RoS
    says:

    I would really appreciate all vSphere clients thinapped as one single app - we have different customers with different level of upgrade, so I almost daily need vSphere 4.1 u1, 4.1, 4.0, etc..

  25. carl says:

    Is it possible to get the "recipe" for this 'package?
    How did you get to 89 mb and how did you disabled SxS?

  26. Totie says:

    Me likez it.. Yes please 4.1U1 for "take out".

  27. Darryl says:

    Yes, PLEEEEASE, a Thinapp'd 4.1u1 would be the cat's meow...

  28. Sven says:

    Still no 4.1 U1 version available???

    • plao says:

      Please please please...release new updated version!!!

  29. Scott Dare says:

    Nooooo! So close. We up'd to ESX 4.1i before discovering this gem. Life in a dynamic Virtual Desktop still remains vSphereless..

  30. Mordecai says:
    Thinapped Vsphere client works when using it to remote into an ESX 4.1.0 (Build 260247) - Guest Hypervisor , but not on the ESX 4.1 Host (build 348481 - 02/10/11 | 4.1 Update 1 )

  31. John says:

    I'd use it if only it was backward-compatible with other ESX/ESXi builds. I have 3.5, 4.0, 4.1 with various U's.

  32. Dennis says:

    How do you check if .net 2.0 or 3.0 is available or not? I would like to implement this check for our own thinapp-ed applications in this way you use. Can you tell me the trick?

  33. Andrei says:

    The only problem is that if you need to administer a infrastructure on 4.0, 4.0u1,u2 or 4.1u1 it will ask you to install the appropriate client.
    So this is in no way a universal package to administer all editions.

    • David Hesse says:

      Andrei is dead right. This Thin App package is useless as long as it does not supports several different vSphere versions.

    • plao says:

      Correct...

  38. Denis Baturin says:

    Is there any plans about 4.0 client?

  39. Richard Powers says:

    I take it I don't have to own Thinapp licenses to Legally use and not have to pay VMware for using it this correct?

    Thanks

    -Rich

    • Amitabh says:

      As long you accept the EULA

  40. james says:

    Awesome idea! Glad to see this, but need current version please! Please also see if there are any more vmware applications you can do this with! Also, put the build number somewhere in teh zip file or zip file name so we know what the build number is for the vpshere client.

    • Amitabh says:

      Thanks for the feedback. A new release with vSphere Client U 1 coming soon and should have the vSphere Client Build #

      • Scott K says:

        Now at 5.0 on the vsphere vi client. Any chance of a thin app for that. Especially since (speaking of thinness) I can't get the 5.0 client to install on the windows 7 "thinpc" (which has happily been running the 4.1 client)

  41. 4.1 Update 1 please!!!!

  42. Todd says:

    Also on 4.1U1 here, please update this.

  43. Also on Update 1 build here, please update this :)
    This would be perfect on Citrix !

  44. Doug Davis says:

    This is a really great idea. What would be even better would be a) if you could provide a Thinapped version with every vCenter release and b) if you could Thinapp all the VI Client/vSphere Client versions from 2.5 upwards - I'm sure I'm not alone in that I have a number of legacy environments I need to manage and could do without having to install multiple versions on my machine.

  45. Claes says:

    Could it be possible to get an msi file with streaming turned on. To use with VMware View?

    Claes

  46. Mr. X says:

    So...this won't work against ESX 4.0 U2?

  47. Virgil says:

    Thanks for the release.

    It would be nice to see the other plug-ins available as linked ThinApps as well. This would include the already mentioned Converter and Update Manager, but also SRM, Appspeed, CapIQ and anything else from the VMware vSphere family.

    Thanks again.

  48. Are the plugins for Update Manager and Converter pre-installed in the package as well? I too would like to see a U1 version as my lab is currently running U1.

  49. Carter Shanklin says:

    Yay. Let's get a PowerCLI one too.

    Maybe we can even get this in the build system and release a new one with every update? Crazy I know, but...
