Clear the VI Client connect box server address list

If you’re a consultant you probably connect with your Virtual Infrastructure Client to a dozen different VirtualCenter servers or ESX hosts every week. After a couple of months the drop down list “IP Address / Name” gets all saturated and it’s impossible to find the right server… So it might come in handy to clear the list every once in a while:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VMware\VMware Infrastructure Client\Preferences

Just delete all “connections” that are obsolete in the “RecentConnections” value.

Excellent post. This is also handy for pre populating the connection information within the VIC.

Thanks again.
