Power management
Supported on: All Citrix Workspace supported platforms
Description
Use this policy to configure the whether the client system and its display are allowed to enter power-saving (sleep) mode. When enabled, this policy controls whether the system and display are allowed to automatically enter sleep mode while a Citrix session is active. Enable 'Prevent system sleep' to prevent the system from sleeping while a session is active. Enable 'Prevent display sleep' to prevent the system's display from sleeping while a session is active.
Registry
HKCU
Software\Policies\Citrix\ICA Client\Engine\Sleep 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.
