Disconnecting From a Remote Desktop or Application
You can disconnect from a remote desktop without logging o, 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 logged in to the remote desktop or application, you can disconnect by tapping the
Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon and tapping the Disconnect icon.
N A Horizon administrator can congure your desktop to automatically log o when disconnected. In
that case, any open programs in your desktop are stopped.
Log Off from a Remote Desktop
You can log o from a remote desktop operating system, even if you do not have a desktop open in
