Apply a Patch for Horizon Client
On desktop client devices, applying a patch involves uninstalling the current version and then installing the
patch version of Horizon Client. On mobile clients, applying a patch involves simply installing the update
from the Web site that sells apps, such as Google Play, Windows Store, or the Apple App Store.
Procedure
1 On each client system, download the installer file for the patch version of Horizon Client.
Your contact at VMware will provide instructions for this download. As mentioned previously, for
some clients, you might get the patch release from an app store.
2 If the client device is a desktop or laptop, remove the current version of the client software from your
device.
Use the customary device-specific method for removing applications.
3 If applicable, run the installer that you downloaded for the patch release of the Horizon Client.
If you got the patch from the Apple App Store or Google Play, the app is usually installed when you
download it, and you do not need to run an installer.
4 Verify that you can log in to the patched desktop pools with the newly patched Horizon Client.
