set the value of Hotkey13Shift I've used Shift, if I recall correctly it accepts Ctrl and Alt and some combinations joined by +.ensure the value of AllowHotkey is set to 1.open regedit, and navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Citrix\ICA Client\Engine\Lockdown Profiles\All Regions\Lockdown\Client Engine\Hot Keys\.I've changed multiple things, but I believe the minimal necessary steps are this: Unfortunately, the only one I've found that helps is 'Hotkey13', which is only available in the registry.

This opens your local start menu on top of Citrix - and from there you can Alt+Tab locally as normal.Ĭitrix has multiple entries in different parts of the registry, and also some settings that you can change with the Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit). It definitely counts as 'some other method' - essentially, it sets up a keyboard shortcut that (I think) passes the Win-key keystroke to your local machine. I have a method for this that involves editing the registry on your local machine. I've contacted my company's help desk but they don't know of any solutions. I tried the "Disable Hotkeys through the ICACLIENT.ADM Template" of this Citrix Support page, but was unable to locate the icaclient template file they refer to. I've gone through all options within Citrix Workspace and the Remote session Preferences but there's nothing about enabling/disabling/setting hotkeys. They typically suggest setting TransparentKeyPassthrough=Remote in the registry of the local machine, so I figured mine should have Remote already and I would just need to clear it or replace it with something else, but mine is a null value. Naturally I've tried to do the reverse of these instructions but no luck. There are many questions online addressing how to enable Alt+Tab within the remote session, but not disable it. Whether toggling is accomplished via getting Alt+Tab to work as desired, a hotkey that just minimizes the session window, or some other method doesn't matter to me. I would like to be able to toggle out of my (full-screen) remote session back to my local desktop more easily.Ĭurrently I can only accomplish this via the control bar at the top of the remote session screen which is starting to feel tedious.Īlt+Tab doesn't work, because it only toggles the applications within the remote session when the session is open. I'm using the Desktop Viewer functionality in Citrix Workspace (version 20.2.0.25(2002)) to access my work computer from my home computer.
