Which experience does the administrator need to configure for users in this environment to be logged on to the Citrix Workspace app without entering their credentials and for sessions to be pre-launched in the background?

• A. Citrix Workspace app for Windows
• B. Citrix Workspace for Web
• C. Citrix Workspace app for Universal Windows Platform
• D. Citrix Workspace app for HTML5

Answer: (A)

The Windows Workspace app is designed to leverage the user’s Windows session for authentication and to support pre-launch of sessions in the background. When users are domain-joined and logged into Windows, the Workspace app can use Windows Integrated Authentication (Kerberos/NTLM) to sign them into the Citrix service without asking for credentials. At the same time, the Windows client can pre-launch sessions so apps and desktops start in the background after login, reducing startup latency. Web-based, HTML5, and other non-Windows clients don’t integrate with the Windows logon in the same seamless way and typically don’t offer the same background pre-launch behavior, which is why they wouldn’t meet both requirements.
