Anti-DLL Injection
Supported on: All Citrix Workspace supported platforms
Description
Use this policy to enable/disable Anti-DLL Injection for Citrix Auth Manager, Citrix Workspace app UI and Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops. By default Anti-DLL injection is disabled. When the policy is: Not Configured - Anti-DLL injection is disabled. Enabled - User can configure Anti-DLL injection individually for Citrix Auth Manager, Citrix Workspace app UI and Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops. Disabled - Anti-DLL injection will be disabled for Citrix Auth Manager, Citrix Workspace app UI and Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops.
Registry
HKLM
SOFTWARE\Policies\Citrix\AppProtection REG Builder
BETAConfigure the state and elements to generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune, and SCCM outputs.
These exports replicate the policy's registry effect. Editing the registry directly is not the same as applying the GPO through the management console (no gpupdate, no central reporting). Test before production; HKLM changes require administrator rights.
