Note: REBOOT=Reallysuppress suppresses a reboot after the install. VMware-viewagent.exe /S /V"/qn REBOOT=Reallysuppress" Open a command prompt on the desktop and run this command: The install switches is shown in line item #4:Ĥ. The first item we need prior to setting up the GPO is to obtain the command that performs a silent install of the VMware Horizon View agent and this command can be found in the following KB: This was the scenario I faced recently at a small organization and rather than manually logging into each full clone virtual desktop to upgrade the VMware Horizon View agent, I decided to use Group Policy GPO for the task. If yes, I would sure appreciate your help.While most enterprise organizations typically have deployment applications such as SCCM for new or upgrades of applications, some smaller companies may not and tasks such as upgrading the VMware Horizon View agent may become quite labour intensive if the environment uses full clone desktops that exceed a count of, say, 20.Q: Has anyone in the community installed VMWare Horizon Client for connecting to a corporate environment in 20.1?
