Windows 10 desktops require View Agent 6.2 or later or Horizon Agent 7.0 or later. Windows Server 2012
R2 desktops require View Agent 6.1 or later or Horizon Agent 7.0 or later. Windows Server 2016 desktops
require Horizon Agent 7.0.2 or later.
Important View Agent 6.1 and later and Horizon Agent 7.0 and later releases do not support Windows
XP and Windows Vista desktops. View Agent 6.0.2 is the last View release that supports these guest
operating systems. Customers who have an extended support agreement with Microsoft for Windows XP
and Vista, and an extended support agreement with VMware for these guest operating systems, can
deploy the View Agent 6.0.2 version of their Windows XP and Vista desktops with Connection Server 6.1.
For descriptions of these features and their limitations, see the View Architecture Planning document.
