System Requirements for Browser Content Redirection on Horizon Windows Client

The remote desktops and client systems on which you install the agent and client software must meet certain requirements to support the Browser Content Redirection feature.

With Browser Content Redirection, when an end user opens a website in the Chrome browser in a remote desktop, the web page is rendered on the client system instead of the agent system, and it is displayed over the remote browser's viewport. The viewport is the portion of the browser window that contains the content of the web page.

  • Remote desktops

    • The Browser Content Redirection group policy settings must be configured on the Active Directory server. See the topics about configuring Browser Content Redirection in the Horizon Remote Desktop Features and GPOs document.
    • The Chrome browser or Microsoft Edge (Chromium) browser must be installed.
    • The Omnissa Horizon Browser Content Redirection extension must be installed in the browser. See the topics about configuring Browser Content Redirection in the Horizon Remote Desktop Features and GPOs document.
  • Display protocol for the remote session

    • PCoIP
