Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops

Fixed issues

The following issues have been fixed since Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 2303.

General

  • Launch failures might happen if VDA machines are brought up on-demand for the launch. The initial launch might fail but the subsequent launch attempts might succeed after a wait. For more information, see CTX566846. [PMCS-37212]

  • When applications from Microsoft Office 365 build 16.0.7967 and later are published as applications from a Windows Server 2019 host, Office license activation fails. Citrix is working with Microsoft to address this Microsoft limitation. The supported workaround is to install Windows Server 2016 VDAs, which do not have the Web Authentication Manager component that is misbehaving. [LCM-7637]

  • You have enabled Local App Access. If you start a Windows 2012 R2 VDA session, disconnect and reconnect the session, and then start a local application and maximize it, the VDA taskbar might truncate the application. [HDX-21913]

  • You’re unable to install the VDA on a Windows 11 desktop. You get the following error: Installation of the Citrix Authentication Identity Assertion VDA Plug-in failed with error code 1603. As a workaround, we recommend that you restart the installation. [AUTH-1858]

Citrix Provisioning

Director

  • The Console link in Citrix Director > Machine Details does not launch the machine console in the Microsoft Edge 44 and Firefox 68 ESR browsers. [DIR-8160]

Graphics

  • When you try connecting to a disconnected VDA session on Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops version 2303, the screen is stuck on the Welcome screen. For more information, see the support article CTX547782. [HDX-49992]
  • Setting the policy View window contents while dragging to Prohibited does not work on ESXi and Hyper-V. [HDX-22002]

Linux VDA

Machine Creation Services (MCS)

  • AWS preparation identity disk is available even after the machine creation process deletes the preparation VM. This issue is resolved. You can, however, delete any available preparation identity disk if there is no ongoing catalog creation or image update task. [PMCS-34500]

Profile Management

Session Recording

Third-party issues

In browser content redirection, after starting a YouTube video using the YouTube HTML5 video player, full-screen mode might not work. You click the icon in the lower-right corner of the video, and the video doesn’t resize leaving the black background in the full area of the page. As a workaround, click the full screen button, and then select theater mode. [HDX-11294]

VDA for multi-session OS

  • Print service crashes intermittently on VDA for multi-session server OS. [HDX-49904]
  • Session prepare request to VDA fails with an exception message. [CVADHELP-20832]
