VMware Horizon 2106 package for the client side includes Microsoft Teams media optimization by default. Media optimization for Microsoft Teams that is installed by default in Horizon Agent, is controlled by a group policy object (GPO). GPO is not enabled by default. You can enable the optimization by using a Group Policy Editor.
For the steps on enabling the optimization using a Group Policy Editor, see the
