But rest assured, the new handling of the return code in the complete installation script also works when installing versions prior to 1904.1. This new handling of the return code first appeared in version 1904.1 of Citrix Workspace (in version 1904 this was not changed yet). I also updated the handling of the return code of the Workspace app installer as described in the following article. : updated article and complete installation script to version 1907. : updated article and complete installation script to version 1904 released on the 30th of April 2019 (previous version described in this article: 1812). : updated article and complete installation script to version 1812 released on the 14th of December 2018 (previous version described in this article: 1809).

Citrix viewer vs receiver how to#
Note: for detailed information how to install and configure Citrix Receiver see the article Citrix Receiver unattended installation with PowerShell on this website. Now, to access my local machine from within a Citrix session I press Shift+F1 to open my local Start menu and give focus to my local machine, and then while it is open Alt+Tab or anything else acts locally.This article explains how to build your Citrix Workspace app unattended installation with PowerShell and shows you how to tweak its configuration.

I tried the "Disable Hotkeys through the ICACLIENT.ADM Template" of this Citrix Support page, but was unable to locate the icaclient template file they refer to. I've gone through all options within Citrix Workspace and the Remote session Preferences but there's nothing about enabling/disabling/setting hotkeys. They typically suggest setting TransparentKeyPassthrough=Remote in the registry of the local machine, so I figured mine should have Remote already and I would just need to clear it or replace it with something else, but mine is a null value. Naturally I've tried to do the reverse of these instructions but no luck. There are many questions online addressing how to enable Alt+Tab within the remote session, but not disable it.

Whether toggling is accomplished via getting Alt+Tab to work as desired, a hotkey that just minimizes the session window, or some other method doesn't matter to me. I would like to be able to toggle out of my (full-screen) remote session back to my local desktop more easily.Ĭurrently I can only accomplish this via the control bar at the top of the remote session screen which is starting to feel tedious.Īlt+Tab doesn't work, because it only toggles the applications within the remote session when the session is open. I'm using the Desktop Viewer functionality in Citrix Workspace (version 20.2.0.25(2002)) to access my work computer from my home computer.
