files in hosted
applications
X Species whether Horizon Client registers local handlers for the
le extensions that hosted applications support.

register any le extension handlers and does not allow the user to
override the seing.
When this seing is set to Disabled, Horizon Client always
registers le extension handlers. By default, le extension handlers
are registered, but users can disable the feature in the
Horizon Client user interface by using the Turn on the ability to

more information, see “Share Access to Local Folders and Drives,”
on page 72.

USB Settings for Client GPOs
You can dene USB policy seings for both the agent and Horizon Client for Windows. On connection,
Horizon Client downloads the USB policy seings from the agent and uses them in conjunction with the
Horizon Client USB policy seings to decide which devices it will allow to be available for redirection from
the host machine.
The following table describes each policy seing for spliing composite USB in the Horizon Client
Conguration ADMX template le. The seings apply at computer level. Horizon Client preferentially reads
the seings from the GPO at computer level, and otherwise from the registry at
HKLM\Software\Policies\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Client\USB. The seings are in the VMware Horizon
Client  > View USB  folder in the Group Policy Management Editor.
For a description of how Horizon applies the policies for spliing composite USB devices, see the topics
about using policies to control USB redirection, in the Conguring Remote Desktop Features in Horizon 7
document.
