What's included with this release?
π₯οΈ
A more native and seamless user experience β Redirected browser content now appears naturally in Alt+Tab switching, taskbar thumbnail previews, and screen captures using tools like the Snipping Tool. Zoom levels stay in sync between VDA and client-side rendering, so users see consistent, properly scaled web content. Touch keyboard interactions are also more reliable and consistent on touch-enabled devices.
π
Stronger security posture β The Chromium Embedded Framework has been updated to version 143. Storebrowse SDK integrations now process ICA files in memory, preventing sensitive connection data from being written to disk β a significant enhancement for ISV and healthcare deployments.
π οΈ
Better visibility and control for administrators β Anti-DLL injection events are now silently logged to Windows Event Viewer and reported to Citrix Director with detailed metadata, replacing user-facing notifications with actionable admin-side insights. The Troubleshoot Connection experience has been refined with fixed layouts, clearer network messaging, and GACS-based controls to disable notifications β reducing end-user confusion while giving admins centralized control.
