Reset a Remote Desktop or Remote Applications
You might need to reset a remote desktop if the desktop operating system stops responding and restarting
the remote desktop does not solve the problem. Reseing remote applications quits all open applications.
Reseing a remote desktop is the equivalent of pressing the Reset buon on a physical PC to force the PC to
restart. Any les that are open on the remote desktop are closed and are not saved.
Reseing remote applications is the equivalent of quiing the applications without saving any unsaved
data. All open remote applications are closed, even applications that come from dierent RDS server farms.
You can reset a remote desktop only if a Horizon administrator has enabled the desktop reset feature for the
desktop.
For information about enabling the desktop reset feature, see the Seing Up Virtual Desktops in Horizon 7 or
Seing Up Published Desktops and Applications in Horizon 7 document.
