The Local App Access section includes policy settings that manage the users’ locally installed applications with hosted applications. These policy settings manage integration in a hosted desktop environment.

Allow Local App Access

This setting allows or prevents the integration of users’ locally installed applications with hosted applications. These policy settings manage integration in a hosted desktop environment.

When a user starts a locally installed application, that application appears to run within their virtual desktop, even though it’s actually running locally.

If you set the Allow local app access policy setting to Enabled, browser content redirection isn’t supported and the client-side notification area battery status does not appear in desktop sessions.

By default, Allow Local App Access is prohibited.

URL redirection block list

This setting specifies websites that are redirected to and started in the local Web browser. These websites might include the following:

Websites requiring locale information, such as msn.com or newsgoogle.com
Websites containing rich media content that are better rendered on the user device.

By default, no sites are specified.

URL redirection allow list

This setting specifies websites that are rendered in the environment in which they’re started.

By default, no sites are specified.
