Determine if Horizon Client is installed or not

[SrikanthVarma]

Is there a way to check vmware Horizon Client is installed from my website. I wanted to display prerequisites in my page, where having Horizon Client is one of it.

I could use URI Scheme "vmware-view://" in my javascript, but that is opening the application (if it exisits) which is not a good experience.

Can you suggest any better solution?

Can someone please respond. I have no better forum than this to inquire about this matter

Hello,

No, you can't, almost sure. Fortunately, websites are not allowed to scan OS at that level. Only option to interact with apps would be specific browser extension, but the app itself would require to be developed accordingly to communicate with that specific extension. Or as you mentioned launch an app using URI scheme, but you won"t have the feedback in your website that the app is launched.
