This document outlines the process to install the Citrix Workspace App for a Windows Computer. The Citrix Workspace app runs the Virtual Applications & Desktops and must be installed on your computer for them to work.
1. Open up your internet browser of choose (we suggest Google Chrome).
2. Navigate to https://www.citrix.com/downloads/workspace-app/windows/workspace-app-for-windows-latest.html
3. Click the button labeled 'Download Citrix Workspace app for Windows'
4. Save to your downloads folder
This article provides detailed steps on how to configure Google Chrome to use the full Citrix Receiver client, rather than the Lite client (HTML5). Under some circumstances, Chrome may revert to using the Lite client and this article will help you to switch to the full client experience. Google Chrome by default will install into a user profile which is problematic for mass deployment in a layer. However Google does provide an “offline” installer that installs Chrome into “Program Files” and this installer should be used with Unidesk if installing into a layer.
6. Double click 'CitrixWorkspaceApp' icon to run the installer.7. Click 'Yes' to the pop up asking if you would like to allow the app to make changes to your computer (not everyone will get this pop up)
8. In the 'Welcome to Citrix Workspace' window, click the 'Start' button.
