Enable desktop lock for all standard users
Supported on: All Citrix Workspace supported platforms
Description
Enable desktop lock functionality for all standard users on the machine if allow desktop lock policy is enabled.
Registry
HKLM
SOFTWARE\Policies\Citrix Value name: EnableDesktopLockForAllStandardUsers
Enabled: EnableDesktopLockForAllStandardUsers = 1
Disabled: EnableDesktopLockForAllStandardUsers = 0
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.
