XenApp and XenDesktop

Time zone control policy settings

The Time Zone Control section contains policy settings related to using local time in sessions.

Estimate local time for legacy clients

This setting enables or disables estimating the local time zone of user devices that send inaccurate time zone information to the server.

By default, the server estimates the local time zone when necessary.

This setting is intended for use with legacy Citrix Receivers or ICA clients that do not send detailed time zone information to the server. When used with Citrix Receivers that send detailed time zone information to the server, such as supported versions of Citrix Receiver for Windows, this setting has no effect.

Use local time of client

This setting determines the time zone setting of the user session. This can be either the time zone of the user session or the time zone of the user device.

By default, the time zone of the user session is used.

For this setting to take effect, enable the Allow time zone redirection setting in the Group Policy Editor (User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Device and Resource Redirection).
