Question : VMWare Tools instance in every terminal session on Citrix

Just setup Citrix for remote desktops and in every desktop session an instance of VMWare tools starts up and runs in the system tray.  How can I prevent this?  I tried taking the entry out of the registry under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run but it still starts up with every desktop session.  

Answer : VMWare Tools instance in every terminal session on Citrix

if you run $profile, it will bring it up even if it doesn't exist.
So, because your using 2008, maybe it just looks a little different. In the explorer bar, it will be viewed as
Computer > C: > Users > My Documents
Within that folder of your profile, open the folder WindowsPowerShell (if its not there create it).
Then, create a new text file names Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1
Voila! Open it up and start creating that profile!

You could also use machine wide profile path
<Installation Directory>\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1
Which is usually: C:\Windows\System32\windowspowershell....etc
