For in-house installations, the ACUCOBOL-GT Thin Client installation files are included in your product delivery.
Starting with version 10.5.0, ACUCOBOL-GT supports the new WEB-BROWSER2 control type, added to support the Microsoft Edge browser. Any Thin Client application that uses the WEB-BROWSER2 control requires access to specific control files that can be installed by the Thin Client installer. The total size of the WEB-BROWSER2 control files is about 150MB. If you create only Thin Client applications that do not use the WEB-BROWSER2 control type, you do not need to install the control files.
Use the Thin Client installer that best accommodates your needs. Each "Full" installer includes the WEB-BROWSER2 control files, and each "Compact" installer does not:
Once it is installed, you can invoke the ACUCOBOL-GT Thin Client from a command line, or you can set up an icon for it. Create an icon for the thin client, specifying command parameters as desired. Command parameters for the thin client are described in The acuthin Command. For information on establishing program icons, refer to your Windows documentation.
You can also download and install the ACUCOBOL-GT Thin Client from the Micro Focus Web site. Click the link for the Micro Focus download page, then click the link for the ACUCOBOL-GT Thin Client.

When you install the thin client, the system displays the terms and conditions for using the ACUCOBOL-GT Thin Client. You must agree to the terms of this agreement to install or use the thin client.
