VDA for single-session OS

Printing

  • On a VDA for Desktop OS, attempts to print a file with a mapped client printer might fail. The issue occurs when the VDA is installed on Windows 10 version 1903. [CVADHELP-13357]

  • With the non-default fonts (for example, the barcode font CCode390) installed on the VDA Version 7.18 or later, a printing issue might occur when you update XenApp and XenDesktop from Version 7.17 to 7.18 or later. As a result, the barcode font might not print when you print a document from a session. [CVADHELP-12454]

Session/Connection

  • When you play back audio in a user session, you might hear a popping sound. [CVADHELP-11241]

    Name: HookProcess

    Type: REG_DWORD
