Transferring Files between the Client and a Remote Desktop
With the le transfer feature, you can transfer (upload and download) les between the client and a remote
desktop. File transfer to or from applications is not supported.
The Horizon administrator can congure the ability to allow, disallow, or allow in one direction only, the
transfer of les by modifying GPO (group policy object) seings for the VMware Blast protocol. For more
information, see “HTML Access Group Policy Seings,” on page 24. The default is upload only.
You can download a le up to 500 MB in size, and upload a le up to 2 GB in size. For 32-bit Internet
Explorer 11, downloading a le larger than 300 MB might not work. To resolve the issue, run Internet
Explorer 11 in 64-bit mode.
You cannot download or upload folders, or les that have a size of zero.
Safari on iOS and Safari 8 do not support upload or download. Safari 9 does not support download.
If le transfer is in progress in a desktop session and the user opens a connection to a second desktop, and if
a security warning is displayed (this can happen if no valid certicate was installed, for example), ignoring
the warning and continuing to connect to the second desktop will cause the le transfer in the rst desktop
session to abort. This is expected behavior.
N The ability to download is aected by the group policy seing for clipboard redirection. If clipboard
redirection is disabled from the server to the client, then le download is also disabled.
