You can configure Horizon Client to look for and install updates each time it starts. You can also look for and install updates manually.

If Horizon Client detects a new version, you can download and install the new version, have Horizon Client remind you to install the new version the next time it starts, or skip the new version. If you skip a new version when looking for updates manually, the automatic update process also skips that version.

Note: To perform an online upgrade, you must allow access for address softwareupdate.vmware.com with port number 443.

Procedure

    The Automatically check for updates check box is selected by default.
  • To look manually for and install an update, select VMware Horizon Client > Check for Updates.
