CapturedUsingVersion Parameter
The CapturedUsingVersion parameter displays the version of ThinApp for the capture process and
determines the file system macros that ThinApp must expand.
Do not modify or delete this parameter from the Package.ini file. ThinApp uses this parameter for
backward compatibility and technical support.
Example: Displaying the ThinApp Version Number With Which an Application
Was Captured
The CapturedUsingVersion parameter might display ThinApp version 4.0.0-2200.
[BuildOptions]
CapturedUsingVersion=4.0.0-2200
StripVersionInfo Parameter
The StripVersionInfo parameter determines whether to remove all version information from the source
executable file when ThinApp builds the application.
The source executable file is the file listed in the Source parameter. The version information for executable
files appears in Windows properties. Properties information includes the copyright, trademark, and version
number. The StripVersionInfo parameter can remove the Version tab of Windows properties.
ThinApp sets an initial value of the StripVersionInfo parameter that copies all version information from the
source executable file.
