Question :
Hi,
I have a few ViewClient sessions that when the user logs in are missing "all" the ViewClient Variables. This is noticeable when running the "set" command from "cmd". These are some of the variables which are usually there:
"ViewClient_MAC_Address"
"ViewClient_Machine_Name"
"ViewClient_Machine_Domain"
I have also been reading an article that states that the "Horizon Agent writes the client computer information to the system registry path HKCU\Volatile Environment on remote desktops."
When I check the "HKCU\Volatile Environment" registry path the variables are all in there
Also when I run "cmd" as an "administrator" and then type the "set" command, they are also there.
For some reason this has started happening on certain clients from time to time and can sometimes work only after several restarts. This is impacting applications that reference these ViewClient Variables.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thanks,
