When installing the windowsdesktop-runtime-8.0.11-win-x64.exe in windows 11 OS it prompts fro the location of dotnet-host-8.0.10-win-x64.msi package which is not available and the installation failed. I could not find this msi package in the downloads portal.

Windows desktop runtime is required to launch the Omnissa Horizon client. please provide any solutions to fix this error.

    When I ran into this issue, I made sure the old package was uninstalled in appwiz.cpl, then I searched the registry for the pointer to old package's .msi file. Once I found it, I deleted that key, and the new one installed normally.
