Run Published Applications from the Applications Folder

You can configure Omnissa Horizon Client so that published applications appear in the Applications folder on the client system.

If a Horizon administrator has configured one or more category folders for a published application, you can optionally configure Horizon Client to show the published application in those folders in the Applications folder on the client system.

For information about configuring shortcuts and category folders for published applications, see the Desktops and Applications in Omnissa Horizon 8 document.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Click the Settings button (gear icon) in the upper-right corner of the desktop and application selector window and select Applications in the left pane.

  2. To turn on the ability to run published applications from the Applications folder on the client system, select Run hosted applications from your local Applications folder.

  3. To show the category folders that are configured for published applications in the Applications folder, select Allow automatic shortcuts from the server.
