VMware Horizon View Persona Management service Error
We have had three users out of over 100 report a windows service error on their virtual desktops. The error reads "Failed to connect to a windows service. Windows could not connect to the VMware Horizon View Persona Management service. This problem prevents standard users from logging on to the system..."![Persona error window]()
.
If we install VMware Agent 6.1.1 without the persona option, the error goes away.
I do not understand persona operation enough to permanently correct the error.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

I do not find the VMWVvp.txt file on any of the three computers we have had troubles with. Could it be because the logs only go back a week and we fixed the problem by uninstalling VMware Horizon View Agent and reinstalling with Persona disabled? Also, thank you for the Client-Side Caching link. I will check that on those machines.
