Windows Thin PC is the successor to Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs. It is based on Windows Embedded POSReady 7,[1] a lightweight version of Windows 7 intended for use in embedded industry devices and serves as a thin client which can be used on older computers for users who do not want or do not have the option to upgrade hardware. It was released to manufacturing on 7 June 2011 and reached general availability on 1 July 2011.[2]
Like its predecessor, the operating system is not available in the retail market and could only be obtained from the Microsoft Software Assurance program, which is targeted towards the enterprise market.
In a similar fashion to the previous release, many features found in the original Windows 7 release were removed in an effort to reduce the performance impact on older devices. The Desktop Window Manager feature is still present in this release of Windows despite it focusing on older hardware.
Windows Thin PC contains write filters which are both file-based and enhanced and can be enabled to prevent users and programs from writing data to the main disk and redirect all data writes to a virtual hard disk that is cleared when the machine reboots to ensure that Windows Thin PC is restored to its original image.[3]
Windows Thin PC also contains some minor enhancements like the ability to suppress certain Windows dialog boxes, a keyboard filter to suppress unwanted keystrokes and support for custom-defined keystroke combinations.
Windows Thin PC is a thin client operating system from Microsoft, released on July 1, 2011. It is based on Windows Embedded Standard 7. Windows Thin PC is a lightweight version of Windows 7 for installation on low performance PCs.
Windows Thin PC offers an excellent thin client experience by locking down the PC through write filters, while still providing users with a superior remote desktop experience through RemoteFX support. IT can deploy and manage Windows Thin PC images for multiple PCs using System Center Configuration Manager, and push updates to these PCs using Windows Update or Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).
Microsoft recommends that customers begin their journey to thin clients by first repurposing existing PCs as thin clients with Windows Thin PC and evaluate the benefits they would get with this architecture. Once Windows Thin PC device hardware get decommissioned, customers can then purchase new Windows Embedded Thin Clients from our OEM partners without having to make changes to their existing management and security policies.
We already have a Genuine OS for this Main System and it was advised that as long as the number of users are less than 10, we do not need to buy a Windows Server OS for this Thin Client Configuration.
Hi, What I meant was, in a thin client setup, we would need a main server connected to thin clients. Here in my case, it is one server with 7 thin clients, so overall 8 possible systems available for use. My question is, do we need to buy a Windows Server OS or Windows 10 OS itself is enough for this arrangement? Usage is very limited. Office and Internet usage only.
I think you need to get more information from whomever is giving you this advice. Generally, thin clients are used to remote into a server running RDS or VDI services. This requires a Server OS and the proper RDS/VDI licensing to do this. A desktop OS can share out folders and things like that but the client itself needs to be running whatever apps you use - Microsoft Office, etc.
You would need a server license and one with x number of CALs for terminal server/remote desktop services - but your applications also need to support this and products like Office are per user licensing, so you still need X licenses to cover your users.
The only exception to this is that Desktop OS can share printers and files with up to 10 other machines (which would need to have their own OS with their own licenses). But anything beyond that (database applications, etc.) cannot be done with Desktop OS as a Server.
Rod-IT is correct from the licensing perspective but there is also a technical issue: Windows desktop editions are strictly one GUI session only. You can have multiple users working on the same workstation via CLI tools like PowerShell remoting, but only one user has access to a graphical desktop at a time. That capability is reserved for Windows Server editions.
Desktop versions of Windows only allow 1 session at a time - everyone will kick each other out. You will need to go with Windows Server that supports whatever software you are using + cals if you take the RDS route.
But how will you save cost, you need terminals, they require an OS and you need CALs to connect to remote systems, if the Thin clients are to be used as the main device, they will be awful for performance as they are intended to be used as a connection to a remote desktop session or VDI desktop
Because our guy is pretty confident, as long as the number of Users remain below 10, we do not need a Windows Server for running a Thin Client base which would have Windows Embedded pre installed In it.
All Files and Printers would be connected to the Main System. This Thin Client device which would come pre installed with Windows Embedded OS would have access to these files which would be still in the Main System.
We were proposed to buy One Windows License for the Main System, that too a Windows 10 Professional. The Thin Client comes with Windows Embedded OS pre installed in them and they mentioned that, as long as the number of devices connected are less than 10, we can simply connect all Thin Clients to The Main System, and start using it right away. Usage is very limited. Office and some Browsing.
Then people can use whatever thy have now or you can buy them something newer, or they can use their own devices (but this is up for discussion with you and them as to the support they get, based on what they need).
I've got some HP T620's and they have got Windows 7 embedded installed standard. I'm using HP Device Manager for new images and when I install Windows 10 IoT on the thin client, I can't activate Windows 10 IoT on them.
The error: "We can't activate Windows on this device because the product key was already user on another device. If you think it wasn't user on another device, select Troubleshoot below. Error code: 0xC004C008."
On another circumstance the Windows Key was showing a wrong key in the Windows Activation dialog but when using wmic it provided the correct one that could be entered and then it activated correctly:
I recently observed this strange set of workstation at my workplace where around 30 monitors are installed and it seemed to be running fine.There was no CPU connected to the monitors but there was a modem like thing which has connection to the monitor and in parallel to other PCs adjacent. Later it was realized that a virtual connection has been set up.
My main question now is how is this connection established.Would it compromise on the performance or speed while the remaining users perform their respective tasks. Also can the processes being executed on the respective PCs be tracked at this main server machine.
It is a terminal server, with thin clients connected to it via a "dumb" machine (offers basic networking, video and mouse/keyboard input). Everything is living off of one server that everyone shares, and is therefore managed by an IT department. The clients connect (usually) with the RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) used by Windows Servers, although there are some that use VNC or other remote technologies. The main point though is that the devices that connect the keyboard mouse and monitor are not processing anything themselves, but rather, sending all input to the server, and taking in the output for the screen.
It will affect system performance as more users connect, but most terminal servers are built to handle large loads of data and processing. And since everything is actually taking place on a remote server, yes, everything can be logged
To add on what @Luke said, a common way for the thin client to connect to the terminal server is over what is commonly referred to as Remote Desktop. Usually, the server is hosting multiple virtual machines, e.g. each user's workstation.
Most thin clients have a barebones linux OS installed on a small flash drive embedded in the motherboard of the "modem like thing." When the client boots, it automatically starts a remote session with the terminal server, and displays a log in prompt to the workstation OS.
To test out Windows Thin PC, I used a Dell Inspiron 640m. This rather dated laptop features a 2.0 GHz Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of RAM, an 80GB hard drive and Intel's GMA 950 integrated graphics chip, the same one that can still be found in many low-end netbooks. It's no screaming rig, but that's not necessary for comparing Windows Thin PC to Windows 7, and I believe the laptop to be more or less representative of the sort of computer on which Windows Thin PC might find a home.
The Windows Thin PC installer is virtually identical to the regular Windows 7 installer, from the first boot screen to the last first-time setup prompt. Installation takes something like half the time that Windows 7 Ultimate does, which makes sense because there are fewer files to copy to the hard drive.
This is all done in the name of saving space, both on the disk and in memory - sitting idle at the Windows desktop with all Aero effects enabled (Aero Basic is enabled by default to save resources) Windows Thin PC used 505 MB of RAM, where Windows Ultimate installed on the same computer uses about 621 MB. This is a decent improvement, but the disk space usage comparison is much more impressive: a fresh install of Windows Ultimate uses 8.64 GB of my hard drive, where Windows Thin PC on the same computer uses just 2.7 GB of space.
