Launching VMware Horizon View Client 5.3 fails on Windows 7

Hi all,

 

Have anyone had an issues similar to mine that you can not launch VMware View client and stated another instance has been running like the following KB?

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1032669

 

I have Windows 7 Pro 32-bit and for the life of me, I cannot end process the wswc.exe under task manager. I even tried using the "taskkill" command or other 3rd party "kill process" application.

When I issued taskkill command, it came back with the result;

SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to the process with PID 7136 (For example).

But under Windows Task Manager, wswc.exe is still listed and still cannot run the client.

 

The only way to get the View Client working again is by rebooting the machine but then if I disconnect at the end of the day, tomorrow I'll have the same problem again. That wswc.exe process will get stuck.

I also already tried uninstall and reinstall the client but it did not help.

 

I'm going to try installing the older client version now and see how it goes.

If anyone had any experience with this in the past and has the solution, please do share. It'll be much appreciated.

 

Thanks.
