Hi,
is there a timeframe for Windows 10 Support in VMware Horizon View? Didn´t find anything according to Windows 10... or am i blind?
best regards,
Holger
As far as I know, Windows 10 is compatible with VMware horizon already, but your hyper-visor isn't fully...which will need an update to be released shortly.
I got the following problem with Windows 10. Sometimes on the first logon i get a black screen. Then i kill the view client and start a new session there is no problem.
Windows 7 / 8 i dont have any problems.
Haven't seen that behavior. Unless it's related to this. I'm still using this fix so it's possible this is still needed.
After solving the Windows Activation Issues, the only problem I'm having is a blank Start Menu, and Windows Edge browser missing. Still scratching my head on that one.

Hi SysteembeheerNSD,
You mean the use of VMware Horizon Client installed on Windows 10 gives sometimes the blankscreen?
I have the same issue here.
Think the client is not compatible yet.
And to access a Windows 10 desktop in View 6.1.1 is an nice job for next week :smileylaugh: .

Ronny.
I'm looking for the support dates 7, plus any docs on optimization since the experience of win10 on view is pretty laggy compared to win7
I'm posting from a Windows 10 VM on Horizon 6.2. I don't notice any lag. I optimized my image like I always do with the VMware optimizer and group policy.
We have a pool set up using Windows 10. With one user, all is good. More than one user and it gets laggy. We used the optimization tool and it still does it.
ESXi 6.x
vSphere 6.x
Windows 10 VM on v6.x host.
I'm noticing this behavior now when taking snapshots. First boot after the snapshot, the VM seems frozen. I have to restart it then it's fine until the next snapshot.
Not sure if this is related.
Hi Hoger,
Windows 10 is supported with Horizon 6.2 Release Notes for VMware Horizon 6 version 6.2
It is also supported on vsphere
Refer to the compatibility Guide https://vmware.com/go/hcl
If you upgrade from a Windows 8.1 desktop to Windows 10, log in to the desktop, and press a key on the login screen, Windows displays a black screen and the desktop is unusable.
Workaround: Take these steps:
Agreed with the laggy system. I am using about 80 desktops now with Windows 7 which are optimized by optimization tool and system consumes about 300 MB RAM. Everything is really fast, no lagging. I decided to test Windows 10 in the same environment with the same optimization tool. I have some issues about uninstalling windows store apps, they are like crapware. I created pool with 5 desktops. Logging was quite longer then I expected and user experience is not as good as on Win 7. I think, the Win 8.1 was faster. For the las I tried last technical build 14352 which was much faster than official build. I guess, the best way is to wait for big update this summer. Anyone has different experience?
