Failed to install the hcmon driver. Now I've come across several simple things that should help me, but it didn't: remove vsphere client, install remote console and reinstall vsphere client; install with extra admin priviliges; Do a register workaround (enable HCmon, install, remove regkey). Can employers access any information from your personal pc when using VMWare Horizons Client? Vm constantly hits 100% cpu utilization, any way to set a max limit it can get to? Vsphere client 5.5 fails to install the hcmon driver (.SOLVED.). But I don’t see Non-Plug and Play Drivers and VMware hcmon on my Windows 10 computer; Try renaming the C:WindowsSystem32drivershcmon.sys file. Still get the same error; Solution. On my laptop, vSphere Client 5.5 and 6.0 (older build), and their respective Update Manager plug-in are installed; Remove these older clients and plug-ins.
