When you say "nothing happens" there might be an issue with other processes running on your system. Please verify whether "fixcamera.exe" is running and kill this process, then retry the vSphere Client installation.

Thanks very much it's work .

What is this process "fixcamera"?

You are welcome and thanks for the feedback.

Fixcamera.exe seems to get installed with some webcam software. I can't tell you exactly why the install doesn't run if this process is active (I didn't have the chance to verify this yet) but I could think of somedll and/or base address conflicts etc.
