accepted method of installing software on windows virtual desktop

I have multiple servers, load balanced in breadth mode. When installing software on a windows virtual desktop server, does the software automatically get installed on all the servers or do you have to install  the install on all the servers.

    EricFehn I mean I have the windows virtual desktop servers in a pooled configuration. Do you have to run the software install on every server or if you install it on one, the others will also receive the software?

      EricFehn Base on my understanding ,WVD only  provide persistent deploy methods.That means you have to maintain/install software on every virtual machines even you configue them in pooled configuration.

      Or, you could install the software in the master PC,then deploy it again.

        LillyZhao  thanks Lilly, to deploy it again, what would i do? Would I duplicate the VHD and then create another vm and attachit to the new one?
