Citrix receiver setup
Citrix recommends that you do not split interfaces for a webcam. As a workaround, redirect the device to a single device using Generic USB redirection. For a better performance, use the optimized virtual channel.
Citrix Workspace app supports the use of Bloomberg keyboard in a virtual apps and desktops session. The required components are installed with the plug-in. You can enable the Bloomberg keyboard feature when installing Citrix Workspace app for Windows or by using the Registry editor. Bloomberg keyboards provide other functionality when compared to standard keyboards, that allows the user to access financial market data and perform trades.
In addition to the normal functionality of these devices, the audio device includes support for some keys, control of the keyboard, and keyboard LEDs. To use the specialized functionality inside a session, you must redirect the audio device as a USB device.
This redirect makes the audio device available to the session, but prevents the audio device from being used locally. In addition, the specialized functionality can only be used with one session and cannot be shared between multiple sessions. Multiple sessions with Bloomberg keyboards are not recommended. The keyboard operates in a single-session environment only.
You must configure various interfaces of the Bloomberg keyboard. New lines or semicolon can be used to separate rules which allows to read either single line or multi-line registry values. This procedure makes the Bloomberg keyboard 5 ready for use. The DENY rules that are mentioned in the steps enforce the redirection of the primary keyboard and audio channel over an optimized channel but not over Generic USB. The CONNECT rules enable automatic redirection of the fingerprint module, special keys on the keyboard, and keys related to audio control.
Citrix cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of the Registry editor can be solved. Use the Registry editor at your own risk. Bloomberg keyboard 3 support is available in the online plug-in If the value is 1, support is enabled.
Citrix Receiver for Windows 4. However, you must use the Bloomberg keyboard feature instead of this policy for the Bloomberg keyboard 4. The support for the Bloomberg keyboard changes the way certain USB devices are redirected to a session. This support is not enabled by default. To enable support after installing the online plug-in, edit the Windows Registry on the system where the online plug-in is running:.
For Bloomberg 3, a single session or the local system can use the fingerprint reader, and cannot be shared. Bloomberg 4 is prohibited for redirection.
If you enable support for Bloomberg keyboards in the online plug-in, you have the benefit of sharing the specialized keyboard functionality with multiple sessions.
You also experience less network bandwidth from the audio. Enabling support for the Bloomberg keyboard prevents the redirection of the Bloomberg Keyboard audio device. Instead, a new device is made available. Redirecting this device provides the specialized Bloomberg keys to the session. Enabling the Bloomberg keyboard support only affects the specialized Bloomberg keys and the audio device. Because the ordinary keys and fingerprint reader are used in the same way as when the support is not enabled.
The media device includes cameras, scanners, media players, and point of sale POS devices. You or the user can restrict the redirection of all or some of the devices. Edit policies on the server or apply group policies on the user device to configure the redirection settings. A user can set permissions in Citrix Workspace app to allow or reject device redirection always or notify each time a device is connected.
The setting affects only devices plugged in after the user changes the setting. These mappings can be used like any other network mappings. You can map client COM ports at the command prompt.
For information about policies, see the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation. To use this COM port in a virtual desktop or application, install your user device to the mapped name.
For mass storage devices only, in addition to USB support, remote access is available through client drive mapping. When you apply this policy, the drives on the user device automatically map to drive letters on the virtual desktop when users log on.
The drives are displayed as shared folders with mapped drive letters. If you enable both Generic USB and the client drive-mapping policies and insert a mass storage device before a session starts, it is redirected using client drive mapping first, before being considered for redirection through USB support. If it is inserted after a session has started, it will be considered for redirection using USB support before client drive mapping.
Client drive mapping supports the transfer of data between the host and the client as a stream. The file transfer adapts to the changing network throughput conditions. It also uses any available extra bandwidth to scale up the data transfer rate.
Users can:. By default, client drives are mapped to server drive letters and server print queues are created for client printers, which make them appear to be directly connected to the session.
These mappings are available only for the current user during the current session. You can use the redirection policy settings to map user devices not automatically mapped at logon. For more information, see the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation.
You can configure user device-mapping including options for drives, printers, and ports, using the Windows Server Manager tool. For more information about the available options, see your Remote Desktop Services documentation. Client folder redirection changes the way client-side files are accessible on the host-side session. Enabling only client drive mapping on the server, client-side full volumes automatically maps to the sessions as Universal Naming Convention UNC links.
When you enable client folder redirection on the server and the user configures it on the user device, part of the user specified local volume gets redirected. Only the user-specified folders appear as UNC links inside the sessions, instead of the complete file system on the user device. If you disable UNC links through the registry, client folders appear as mapped drives inside the session.
For more information, including how to configure client folder redirection for user devices, see the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation. Client drive mapping redirects drive letters on the host-side to drives that exist on the user device. For example, drive H in a Citrix user session can be mapped to drive C of the user device running Citrix Workspace app for Windows. Client drive mapping is built into the standard Citrix device redirection facilities transparently.
To File Manager, Windows Explorer, and your applications, these mappings appear like any other network mappings. The server hosting virtual desktops and applications can be configured during installation to map client drives automatically to a given set of drive letters.
The default installation maps drive letters assigned to client drives starting with V and works backward, assigning a drive letter to each fixed drive and CD-ROM drive. Floppy drives are assigned their existing drive letters.
This method yields the following drive mappings in a session:. So, the server drive letters are changed to higher drive letters. In the following example, changing server drives C to M and D to N allows client devices to access their C and D drives directly. The drive letter used to replace the server drive C is defined during Setup. These drive letters must not conflict with any existing network drive mappings.
Connecting a user device to a server, reestablishes client mappings unless automatic client device mapping is disabled. Client drive mapping is enabled by default. You can also use policies to give you more control over how client device mapping is applied. For more information about policies, see the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation.
Starting with Version 4. When you launch the application, Citrix Workspace app reads the resource data present on the StoreFront server and applies the settings based on the vprefer flag at the time of enumeration. If present, launches the local instance of the application. Otherwise, a hosted instance of the application is launched. If you launch an application that is not on the VDA, Citrix Workspace app launches the hosted application.
For more information on how StoreFront handled the local launch, see Control of local application launch on published desktops in the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation. This feature helps to launch applications faster, thereby providing a better user experience.
By default, vPrefer is enabled only in a double-hop scenario. When you upgrade or install Citrix Workspace app for the first time, add the latest template files to the local GPO. For an upgrade, the existing settings are retained while importing the latest files. Citrix Workspace app for Windows supports configuring Workspace for subscribers, who might be using one or more services available from Citrix Cloud. Citrix Workspace app intelligently displays only the specific workspace resources to which users are entitled.
All your digital workspace resources available in Citrix Workspace app are powered by the Citrix Cloud Workspace experience service.
A workspace is part of a digital workspace solution that enables IT to securely deliver access to apps from any device. This screenshot is an example of what the workspace experience looks like to your subscribers.
This interface is evolving and might look different to what your subscribers are working with today. Citrix Content Collaboration enables you to easily and securely exchange documents, send large documents by email, securely handle document transfers to third parties, and access a collaboration space.
Citrix Content Collaboration provides many ways to work, including a web-based interface, mobile clients, desktop apps, and integration with Microsoft Outlook and Gmail. You can view the Files tab only if Content Collaboration Service is enabled in the Workspace configuration from the Citrix Cloud console.
The following image displays example contents of the Files tab of the new Citrix Workspace app:. Secure access to SaaS applications provides a unified user experience that delivers published SaaS applications to the users. SaaS apps are available with single sign-on. Administrators can achieve this by filtering access to specific websites and website categories.
The service enables administrators to provide a cohesive experience, integrating single sign-on, and content inspection. For information, see Citrix Enterprise Browser documentation. For more information about Workspace configuration, see Workspace configuration in Citrix Cloud. Windows Continuum is a Windows 10 feature that adapts to the way the client device is used. Citrix Workspace app for Windows supports Windows Continuum, including dynamic change of modes.
It starts in desktop mode when either a keyboard or a mouse or both are attached. Detaching or attaching the keyboard on any client device or the screen on a 2-in-1 device like a Surface Pro toggles between tablet and desktop modes. For more information, see Tablet mode for touchscreen devices in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation.
On a touch-enabled client device, the Windows 10 VDA detects the presence of a keyboard or mouse when you connect or reconnect to a session. It also detects when you attach or detach a keyboard or mouse during the session. This feature is enabled by default on the VDA. To disable the feature, modify the Tablet mode toggle policy using Citrix Studio. Desktop mode offers the traditional user interface where you interact in the same manner as a PC with a keyboard and mouse.
Browser content redirection prevents the rendering of webpages in the allow list on the VDA side. You can specify that webpages be redirected to the VDA side and not redirected on the client side by using a block list. Browser content redirection supports the Google Chrome browser in addition to the Internet Explorer browser. Browser content redirection redirects the contents of a web browser to a client device, and creates a corresponding browser embedded within the Citrix Workspace app.
This feature offloads network usage, page processing, and graphics appearing at the endpoint. For more information, see Browser content redirection. Citrix Workspace app is instrumented to securely transmit logs to Citrix Analytics.
The logs are analyzed and stored on Citrix Analytics servers when enabled. For more information about Citrix Analytics, see Citrix Analytics. With this release, Citrix Workspace app is instrumented to securely transmit the public IP address of the most recent network hop to Citrix Analytics Service. This data is collected per session launch. It helps the Citrix Analytics Service to analyze whether poor performance issues are tied to specific geographic areas.
However, you can disable this option on the Citrix Workspace app using the Registry editor. Citrix Workspace app is instrumented to securely transmit data to Citrix Analytics Service from ICA sessions that you launch from a browser. The relative mouse feature determines how far the mouse has moved since the last frame within a window or screen. The relative mouse uses the pixel delta between the mouse movements. When you change, for example, the direction of the camera using mouse controls, the feature is efficient.
Relative mouse support provides an option to interpret the mouse position in a relative rather than an absolute manner. The interpretation is required for applications that demand relative mouse input rather than absolute. You can configure the feature both on a per-user and a per-session basis, which gives more granular control on the feature availability. Configuring the feature using the Registry Editor or the default. To configure the feature, set the following registry keys as applicable and then restart the session for the changes to take effect:.
To validate if the policy is set and hardware acceleration is used for an active ICA session, check the following registry entries:. If the value is 1, that means CPU-based decoding is being used. Citrix Workspace app supports multiple client-side microphone inputs. You can use locally installed microphones for:.
Citrix Workspace app users can select whether to use microphones attached to their device using Connection Center. Each monitor in a multiple monitor configuration has its own resolution designed by its manufacturer.
Monitors can have different resolutions and orientations during sessions. Full screen mode, with multiple monitors shown inside the session; applications snap to monitors as they would locally.
Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix DaaS: To display the Desktop Viewer window across any rectangular subset of monitors, resize the window across any part of those monitors and click Maximize.
Windowed mode, with one single monitor image for the session, applications do not snap to individual monitors. Multiple virtual desktops can be displayed on one device provided the monitor arrangement is rectangular. If the primary monitor on the device is used by the virtual apps and desktops session, it becomes the primary monitor in the session. Otherwise, the numerically lowest monitor in the session becomes the primary monitor.
Check if the setting is large enough in kilobytes to provide sufficient graphic memory. To enable touch-enabled access to virtual applications and desktops from Windows tablets, Citrix Workspace app automatically displays the on-screen keyboard when:. You can configure combinations of keys that Citrix Workspace app interprets as having special functionality. When the keyboard shortcuts policy is enabled, you can specify Citrix Hotkey mappings, behavior of Windows hotkeys, and keyboard layout for sessions.
Citrix Workspace app supports bit high color icons. To provide for seamless applications, it automatically selects the color depth for:. The possible color depths for icons are 4, 8, 16, 24, and 32 bits-per-pixel. The user can select a lower color depth for icons if the network connection is slow. The start menu integration and desktop shortcut only feature lets you bring published application shortcuts into the Windows Start menu and onto the desktop. Users do not have to subscribe to applications from the Citrix Workspace user interface.
Start menu integration and desktop shortcut management provide a seamless desktop experience for groups of users. Also for users who need access to a core set of applications in a consistent way. The flag is called SelfServiceMode and is set to True by default.
Instead, you can access subscribed apps from the Start menu and desktop shortcuts that is referred as shortcut-only mode. Users and administrators can use several registry settings to customize the way shortcuts are set up. Windows 10 does not allow the creation of nested folders within the Start menu.
Applications are displayed individually or under the root folder. But, not within the Category sub folders that are defined with Citrix Virtual Apps. Workspace control lets applications follow users as they move between devices.
For example, workspace control enables clinicians in hospitals to move from workstation to workstation without having to restart their applications on each device. For Citrix Workspace app, you manage workspace control on client devices by modifying the registry. Workspace control can also be done for domain-joined client devices using Group Policy.
The published desktop can change the behavior of the Citrix Workspace app. Modify the following key from the default value of 3 to zero. Different enterprises might have different corporate needs. Your requirements for the way users access virtual desktops might vary from user to user and as your corporate needs evolve. The user experience of connecting to virtual desktops and the extent at which the user can configure the connections depend Citrix Workspace app for Windows setup.
Use the desktop viewer when users need to interact with their virtual desktop. In this access scenario, the Desktop Viewer toolbar functionality allows the user to open a virtual desktop in a window and pan and scale that desktop inside their local desktop. Users can set preferences and work on more than one desktop using multiple Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix DaaS connections on the same user device.
Use Citrix Workspace app to change the screen resolution on their virtual desktops. Key presses that activate certain Microsoft accessibility features, for example, Sticky Keys, Filter Keys, and Toggle Keys are normally directed to the local computer. Hotkey sequences are key combinations designed by Citrix. However, you can use them with published applications, that is, with virtual apps sessions.
If the user tries do so, disconnects the existing desktop session. So, Citrix recommends:. A user who logs on locally to a computer that is acting as a virtual desktop, blocks connection to that desktop. Device mapping checks if the desktop devices are mapped consistently within desktop and application sessions. Because local drives are displayed as network drives in desktop sessions, the virtual apps administrator needs to change the drive-mapping policy to include network drives.
You can change the amount of time the status indicator displays when a user is launching a session. When you configure this key, the status indicator might appear and disappear frequently. This behavior is as designed. To suppress the status indicator, do the following:.
Admins can configure the inactivity timeout value to specify the amount of idle time allowed before the users automatically sign out of the Citrix Workspace session. The inactivity timeout value can be set starting from a 1 minute to 1, minutes. As noted above, Citrix collects Workspace app configuration and usage data to improve the quality, functionality, and performance of Workspace App, and to allow Citrix to appropriately allocate resources for product development purposes, as well as to maintain service levels and manage staffing and infrastructure investment.
The data is used and analyzed in aggregated form only. No user or their machine is singled-out and no analysis is performed on specific end users based on the CEIP data. Update your Workspace app if you wish to take advantage of this functionality.
Starting with version , both users and administrators can stop sending CEIP data except for the two data elements which can be blocked as specified in the Note below by following the below steps.
You can also navigate to the following registry entry as an administrator and set the value as suggested:. Citrix handles your data according to the terms of your contract with Citrix, and protect it as specified in the Citrix Services Security Exhibit. Citrix Workspace app displays the date, time, and number based on the locale of the browser or endpoint device. Starting from Citrix Workspace app , you can customize regional date, time, and number formats through Regional Settings.
Changes made in these settings are saved for an individual user and applied across all devices. For more information, see Regional Settings. Starting from Version You can either blur or replace the background with a custom image and avoid unexpected distractions by helping the conversation stay focused on the silhouette body and face. The feature can be used with either P2P or conference calls. MultiWindow support is a prerequisite that requires a VDA update to or higher.
