Upcoming App Installers title retirements (February 2025)

On the 17th of February we will be removing three software titles from App Installers : Adobe Prelude, Microsoft Remote Desktop and VMware Horizon.
  • Adobe made the announcement that Prelude was no longer available for downloading on December 9, 2024. You can read the announcement here.
  • Microsoft rebranded Remote Desktop to the Windows App and we published it as a new title in September 2024. We will now be removing the Remote Desktop title from App Installers.
  • VMware’s EUC division became Omnissa last year and as a result VMware Horizon became Omnissa Horizon. As the Omnissa Horizon Client utilises a new Bundle ID, we will be publishing it as a new title in App Installers and retiring the VMware Horizon title.
Whilst these titles will be removed from App Installers on Monday the 17th of February, they will not be removed on any Mac computers on which they are currently installed. As a reminder you can see the monthly history of what titles are added and retired from App Installers and Patch Management on the documentation page here.

Once I deploy the new Microsoft Windows App will it update the Microsoft Remote Desktop App? or will it install as a separate app?

@bfrench in my testing if the Windows App is deployed to a machine that currently has the Remote Desktop app, Remote Desktop will be removed an replaced with the Windows App.
