Environment

Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Windows XP Professional Support Pack 2
Microsoft Windows Vista
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7

Situation

When trying to install the Remote Management Viewer on a machine that has just had IE7 installed, the MSI runs, but the 'Install Remote Management Viewer' link is still present, and the viewer does not appear in add/remove programs.

Resolution

This is fixed in version 10.1.1 - see KB 7001406 "ZENworks 10 Configuration Management 10.1.1" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support
