Horizon Client is launched and connects to the view.mycompany.com server. The login box prompts the
user for a user name, domain name, and password. After a successful login, Horizon Client displays a
dialog box that prompts the user to confirm the reset operation for Primary Desktop. After the reset
occurs, depending on the type of client, the user might see a message indicating whether the reset was
successful.
NOTE This action is available only if the View administrator has enabled this feature for end users.

HTML Code Examples
You can use URIs to make hypertext links and buttons to include in emails or on Web pages. The following
examples show how to use the URI from the first URI example to code a hypertext link that says, Test Link,
and a button that says, TestButton.
<html>
<body>
<a href="vmware-view://view.mycompany.com/Primary%20Desktop?action=start-session">Test
Link</a><br>
<form><input type="button" value="TestButton" onClick="window.location.href=
'vmware-view://view.mycompany.com/Primary%20Desktop?action=start-session'"></form> <br>
