You can specify which domain users and domain groups can see the icon for a RemoteApp program when the RemoteApp program is made available through RD Web Access. By default, all authenticated domain users will be able to see the icon for a RemoteApp program on the Web site provided by RD Web Access.

Important
  • To assign users to a RemoteApp program, the Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) server on which the RemoteApp program is configured must be a member of an Active Directory domain.
  • To run the RemoteApp program, a user must be a member of the Remote Desktop Users group on the RD Session Host server.

Use the following procedure to specify which domain users and domain groups will be able to see the icon for a RemoteApp program.

Membership in the local Administrators group, or equivalent, on the RD Session Host server that you plan to configure, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477.
