Does Privilege Elevation work on server hosted desktops? I see a note regarding not being applicable for Virtual Apps? WEM On Prem (2305), Server 2022 running LTSR 2203 CU3. I did disable /uncheck the "Do Not Apply to Windows Server OSs" box and privilege elevation is enabled. 'm just trying to get logging/validation of it working but nothing appears in the WEM Administration > Logging > Agent tab. Using notepad for testing, using path and hash, assigned to a global group and then eventually the EVERYONE group. Nothing shows up in the WEM Init or WEM Agent log on the VDA/WEM agent. Any thoughts on where else to look?

the privilege elevation doesn't work on vitual App env. it works for server hosted desktop.
please uncheck ' Do not apply to windows server os' on the server hosed desktop.
have you enabled the debug log for agent? and please refresh settings and cache,thanks

'Do not apply to windows server os' is unchecked and debug log is enabled. Using task manager I do see elevation working for my exe. Two things that cause me concern is no indication on agent side that this is enabled/configured in either the Citrix WEM Agent Init or Citrix WEM Agent logs and the delay updating the Administration, Logging, Agent console with audit information. Right now it has been over an hour since I've launched the application and there are no logs are in the "EXE elevation control" action filter

the log for the elevation is a separate file. It exists under the user profile folder.
the file name is like Citrix WEM PrivEngine Log.11924.log

Hopefully you can see my exe is running elevated and there is nothing in the %userprofile%, for both Windows 10 and Server 2022 desktops. They are in separate configuration sets.

it's strange. could you create the ticket or send the log files?
