VMware View Client requires HTTP 1.1 to be enabled in Internet Explorer (1011655)

If you do not have HTTP 1.1 enabled, you may experience:

Delays and slow performance when:
- Connecting to your connection server
- Performing authentication
- Connecting to your virtual desktop
Performance issues when moving between tabs.

Note: When the connection is established, the session proceeds normally.

The full VMware View client requires that HTTP 1.1 be enabled in the Advanced Settings of Internet Explorer.

To enable HTTP 1.1:

Open Internet Explorer.
Click Tools > Internet Options.
Click the Advanced tab.
Scroll down to HTTP 1.1 Settings.
Select Use HTTP 1.1. If you are using a proxy server, select Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connections.
Click OK.
Close Internet Explorer.
Run the VMware View Client and verify that server connection, authentication, and desktop connection now proceed without delay.
