Publication Name : Using VMware Horizon Client for Windows

Product/Version : VMware Horizon Client for Windows/4.4

Question :

When I try to install, either remotely or via the command line on the local computer, none of the command line options are recognized.  If I run the .exe /s it runs the exact same installation as if I run .exe /s /v"all of my msi options".  It reboots when I tell it not to, doesn't set the default server, and doesn't save a log file where I tell it to.

Can you please share the exact command that you are running and the version? The link you provided for 4.4 is rather old and they've changed the syntax on newer versions. Here is the current 5.0 documentation.

Installing Horizon Client From the Command Line

With Horizon Client 4.10 we use the following.

vcredist_x64.exe /quiet /norestart

vcredist_x86.exe /quiet /norestart

VMware-Horizon-Client-4.10.0-11021086.exe /silent /norestart /log "C:\Windows\Temp\VMware-Horizon-Client-4.10.0-11021086.log" ADDLOCAL=TSSO INSTALL_SFB=0 INSTALL_HTML5MMR=0 REMOVE=Scanner,FolderRedirection,SerialPort AUTO_UPDATE_ENABLED=0

For comparison on Horizon Client 4.4 we used the following.

VMware-Horizon-Client-4.4.0-5171611.exe /s /v" /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress ADDLOCAL=Core,TSSO /l*v "C:\Windows\Temp\VMware-Horizon-Client-4.4.0-5171611.log""
