Windows VMRC provides only 32-bit builds for the VMRC browser plug-in. On the Linux operating system, the VMRC application may outlive its plug-in parent on plug-in crash. The connect API method can succeed for a given virtual machine, but the console might fail to appear.
Fat client users rejoice! The VMware Remote Console (VMRC) 7.0 is now available for download! VMware brought VMRC back in response to Google’s announcement that they would drop NPAPI (Netscape Plugin API) support in Chrome by the end of 2014. The new console, released on October 21st, brings many of the C# client console features back to the web client. Users of vCenter 5.5 Update 2b have two new options on their VM’s summary tab.
