Disconnecting from a Remote Desktop or Application
You can disconnect from a remote desktop without logging off, so that applications remain open on the
remote desktop. You can also disconnect from a remote application so that the remote application remains
open.
When you are connected to the remote desktop or application, you can disconnect by tapping the
Disconnect icon in the Unity Touch sidebar.
NOTE A View administrator can configure your desktop to automatically log off when disconnected. In that
case, any open programs in your desktop are stopped.
Log Off from a Remote Desktop
You can log off from a remote desktop operating system, even if you do not have a desktop open in
Horizon Client.
If you are currently connected to and logged in to a remote desktop, you can use the Windows Start menu
to log off. After Windows logs you off, the desktop is disconnected.
NOTE Any unsaved files that are open on the remote desktop are closed during the logoff operation.
