Attention - Support Update
Virtual SINC Site users: please be advised that VMware and Microsoft have discontinued support for Windows XP. Therefore, the VMware Horizon Client being used by SBU's Virtual SINC Site will not run on a Windows XP computer.
Also, Microsoft recently ended support for Windows 7. While VMware still supports their Horizon Client software on Windows 7, that will not last for long.
It is recommended that you upgrade to Windows 10 operating system if you want to use the Virtual SINC Site.
