I don\u2019t understand why Citrix didn\u2019t include them in XenDesktop 7 from day one. Now Citrix is creating \u201eworkarounds\u201c in response to customer requests. What am I talking about, you ask?<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>A desktop that is linked to a delivery group is being shared. The delivery group does not have any options in the GUI for: Restricting access to the desktop (<strong>PoSh is required for this<\/strong>), size, etc., of the desktop (not everyone wants the Desktop Viewer,\u00a0<strong>The ICA file needs to be modified<\/strong>), the desktop icon cannot be changed (<strong>PoSh is needed again<\/strong>) and no option to automatically create a desktop shortcut on the client desktop (<strong>The receiver must be installed using command-line parameters<\/strong>, or registry key).<\/p>\n<p>Then change the desktop icon\u00a0<strong>About PoSh<\/strong>\u00a0and the old online plug-in version 12.x displays the new icon perfectly. Now it's time to upgrade to the latest receiver version 4.3.1.1, and now the beautifully customized\u00a0<strong>Icon is gone again<\/strong>\u00a0and only a generic icon is displayed. Now there is also\u00a0<strong>another PoSh command<\/strong>\u00a0to overwrite that again! But users who already have the generic icons are out of luck. To fix this, the Citrix order must now be deleted from every user profile on the client.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned earlier, users of an older Citrix client (online plug-in) with StoreFront and XenApp\/XenDesktop 7.x cannot automatically create an icon on the client desktop. Once again, here\u00a0<strong>StoreFront can be customized<\/strong>, so that ALL applications are displayed on the desktop, including the published desktop.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\">That's exactly what I'm talking about!
