Application Citrix Workspace pour Chrome If your company uses Citrix, install Receiver for Chrome on your device to get access to your Windows virtual desktops and applications. Receiver for Chrome can be installed on devices running Chrome OS version 37 or later. There are two ways to ensure that Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops can work on a Chromebook. IT professionals can either use the HTML5 receiver, which is a pure web-based client, or the Chrome OS Citrix Workspace app, which administrators can deploy through the Chrome marketplace if they manage their clients via G Suite.
