Sequencing VMWare View Client 4.5

Type of Sequencing : MNT
Sequencer : 4.6(x64)
OS : Win7

Error : When application is launched you get a error which says " VMWare View Client could not find the plugin path. Please re-install the application"

Solution : The sequencer fails to capture the registries going under HLM\Software\Syswow64\Vmware resulting in failure of the application launch. Export the registry entries and run it inside the OSD Script as shown below:

<SCRIPT EVENT="LAUNCH" PROTECT="TRUE" TIMING="PRE" WAIT="TRUE">
<SCRIPTBODY>Regedit.exe /s "%SFT_MNT%\8.3\*.reg</SCRIPTBODY>
  </SCRIPT>

Note: Manually adding the registries from the virtual registry tab in package configuration wizard did not work as the registries were not reflected in the client machine.
