Accessing Citrix Apps Without Installing the Citrix Workspace

Accessing Citrix Apps Without Installing the Citrix Workspace

You have the ability to access your Citrix account through a browser.  This lets you avoid installing the Citrix Workspace, but it involves some restrictions:

  1. You will not be able to save files to your local drives
  2. You will not be able to print 
  3. Your applications will run in a tab on the browser, not in a separate window
Most users will only use the browser method if they are trying to avoid installing any software on a machine (in a hotel business center, at a tradeshow kiosk, a borrowed machine, etc.).  For regular use, installing the Citrix Workspace is the preferred method.

To use this method, open a browser, navigate to https://my.cloudtopoffice.com , enter your Citrix credentials (we sent them to you in a "Welcome Letter"), and click on "Log On".


Click on "Use light version".



For our example, click on the File Explorer app.



The File Explorer will open in a separate tab.
