The new end-user UI, as seen on cloud stores, is now GA on both StoreFront 2411 and 2402 CU2. It includes enhancements such as activity manager and improved search. For more information about this, and other UI enhancements such as pinned links, see my blog on StoreFront End User Experience.

is it possible to still use the old UI?

Yes you can choose.

When are they going to add back the change password option on the new UI? That's currently still missing.

Nice looks good 🙂 I got alot of customers who heavily uses featured app groups (Not available) and without lack of workspace control and CSS/JS customizations dont think they would be too keen to move at this stage

Password change and workspace control are at the top of the list of gaps so watch this space...

@Jonathan Adams Default View seems to be gone in new Next Gen Experience? What are options to change default view to desktops? I still see "defaultview" configured in web.config file, but that file hasn't been updated since early 2024 (does the 2402 CU2 upgrade not update this file, or is another config file used for the Next Gen experience?)

You need to have enough published apps and desktops, then it will go to the segmented view of apps, desktops, and favorites.

@Jeff Riechers we do have lots of apps and desktops published

Gotcha, so you see the tabs at the top, but it's just not defaulting to Desktops?

@Jeff Riechers yes

> Default View seems to be gone in new Next Gen Experience? The ability to choose the default view is not in 2402/2411 but it is coming soon.

@Jonathan Adams "soon", as in CU3? 🙂 or is there a .ini or .config file to edit in the meantime?

Afraid it won't go into previous LTSRs. No there isn't any way to configure it at the moment.

2503 has it.

I don't understand Citrix's logic sometimes to just remove a feature and then add it back in a later CR and not fix it in a LTSR version when it was there previously.

We've not removed any UI features - all existing features are still available in the Classic UI. If the modern UI doesn't have the functionality you need then don't use it. We didn't want to delay releasing of the modern UI until it had every feature the classic UI did as there are plenty of people for whom the current functionality is sufficient.

Assuming this will also be included when 2507 LTSR is released this summer?

Everything in 2503 will be in the next LTSR. These changes won't be pack-ported to previous LTSRs.
