Security Patch Breaks VMware Users' Windows Desktops

Posted by timothy on from the outside-design-specs dept.

jbrodkin writes "VMware is telling customers that two Windows 7 security patches have left VMware View users incapable of accessing their Windows desktops. Security updates issued on Patch Tuesday fixed Windows but broke the VMware View connection between users' PCs and remotely hosted Windows 7 desktops. Users will have to upgrade VMware View or uninstall the Microsoft patches in order to regain access to their desktops."

  1. That Microsoft Icon by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Why wasn't Slashdot's Microsoft icon completely scrapped with the re-design?

    That thing looks so incredibly dated and anachronistic even 5 years ago. Its irrelevant on both levels. Bill Gates barely works at Microsoft today, and the Borg is a pop culture reference that's not relevant anymore.

    It's sad how Facebook, Google, Apple have their real icons, but Microsoft still does not. Get with the times guys!
