ProPlus - Windows 7 VM

United States Olympic Committee

• September 20, 2013 16:58

I was hoping to get some testing done with some Windows 7 VMs as the clients in environment but there doesn't seem to be a VM Template available. The only way I see possible is to take ownership a Solution Showcase environment that just *happens* to have a Windows 7 VM in it... and even then it only has one client.

 

Is there another way to add as many Windows 7 VMs as I need? Will there be a Windows 7 VM Template sometime in the future? It's rather surprising, and an oversight on my part before purchasing, that  this VM needed so much for end user testing is missing.

  Hey there - unfortunately a change in MSFT licensing meant that Windows desktop VMs could no longer be hosted by any 3rd parties.  In these cases we created some additional standard templates to fill that requirement: 

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Standard
    
  • Windows Server 2012 x64 Standard

  If you like, you can also install the Windows Desktop Experience.

  Hi,

  Our software is not installed in Windows server. It means that I cannot install our product and cannot demo to partners and customers through CloudShare anymore.

  Is there another way to get the Windows 7 or Windows 8 desktop? 

   

  Can we copy one (client) of  VMs already exist in the environment and add it as a VM template?

  Hi Kyusoo, I replied to you directly from our Support site, however for the benefit of the forums, what you can do is copy your environment.  

  Our TeamLabs and Enterprise platforms offer the option to copy/archive and upload VMs as well.
