Security Settings in the Horizon Client Configuration Template
Security-related settings are provided in the ADM template file for Horizon Client (vdm_client.adm). Except
where noted, the settings include only a Computer Configuration setting. If a User Configuration setting is
available and you define a value for it, it overrides the equivalent Computer Configuration setting.

n
For 64-bit Windows: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Client\Security
