editor.
The location of this le is CommonAppDataFolder\VMware\VDM\portal\portal-links-html-
access.properties. For Windows Server 2008 operating systems, the CommonAppDataFolder directory is
C:\ProgramData. To display the C:\ProgramData folder in Windows Explorer, you must use the Folder
Options dialog box to show hidden folders.
N Customizations for View 5.x and earlier releases resided in the portal-links.properties le,
which is located in the same CommonAppDataFolder\VMware\VDM\portal\ directory as the portal-links-
html-access.properties le.
