Log Off from a Remote Desktop

You can log off from a remote desktop, even if the remote desktop is not open in Horizon Client. If the remote desktop is open in Horizon Client, you can use the Windows Start menu to log off.

Prerequisites

Obtain credentials for logging in, such as an Active Directory user name and password, RSA SecurID user name and passcode, or RADIUS authentication user name and passcode.

Procedure

  1. On the Servers tab, tap the server shortcut.

  2. If prompted, supply an RSA user name and passcode, an Active Directory user name and password, or both.

  3. Touch and hold the remote desktop shortcut until the context menu appears.

    You can perform this step from either the All or Favorites tab.

  4. Tap Log Off in the context menu.

Results

The remote desktop is disconnected after you are logged off. Any unsaved files that are open on the remote desktop are closed during the log out operation.
