ThinKiosk was released in 2015 as the first Windows-based PC to thin-client converter. Today, with the release of 5.4 we have added a number of additional features focused on improving performance and experience (full details in the release notes). We’ve picked a few features to talk about below, these features improve the end-user experience by bringing the functionality of Windows into the secured ThinKiosk UI – providing that ease of use people are accustomed to. Whether it be in multi-monitor environments or presenting on 4K televisions, 5.4’s got you covered!
Identify and duplicate display options
ThinKiosk was one of the first thin-client solutions to provide full multi-monitor support and now we’ve added more functionality. End-users can now identify their screen displays and duplicate their displays within the ThinKiosk UI.
With this we have integrated the known Windows functionality, effectively replicating what is available in the standard Windows control panel within the secured ThinKiosk framework.
DPI Scaling for 4k/UHD televisions and displays
DPI display scaling is now supported by ThinKiosk, ensuring quality display output regardless of the screen size or resolution.
With this, we are bringing full Windows functionality directly to ThinKiosk’s secured environment.
This enhancement allows ThinKiosk to support UHD (4k) and greater display resolutions. Ideal for high-quality presentations, advertising screens, high-end graphic design & more!

Favourite Applications Ribbon
This feature was heavily requested by our users! We have added a favorite applications folder directly to the main ribbon in the ThinKiosk UI which allows admins to designate favorite applications within a folder in the ThinKiosk task-bar, giving them an extra way to display their end-users resources. These applications can be local or published.
This allows admins the ability to be more versatile in providing their users access to environment resources securely, rather than only relying on shortcuts. Great if you want to clean up your end user’s work-space!
