Has anyone run into an issue with Citrix Host-to-Client/URL File Type Association (FTA) redirection on Windows Server 2025? We have the Citrix FTA configuration in place (ServerFTAHTML) and have also tried Default Associations XML via GPO and DISM import. Initially, the associations are correct, but they keep getting reverted to: http = MSEdgeHTM https = MSEdgeHTM ProcMon shows the registry write coming from svchost.exe (ProfSvc - User Profile Service): HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice With the value being set to: MSEdgeHTM We are not using FSLogix. Users are using a mandatory profile stored locally on C:. Curious if anyone has seen ProfSvc overwrite the UserChoice key during logon and cause Citrix FTA/Host-to-Client redirection to stop working. If so, what was the root cause and fix?

This is what we had to do to fix it. We set it in WEM, in the mandatory profile, and in gpu. MSEdge still runs it's own processes to reset that back to it. Finally we setup hourly scheduled tasks to reset it back to the proper settings. docs.jeffriechers.com/Citrix/CVAD/citrix-sfta-and-the-battle-against-msedge
