If users can not access any published applications from their workstations but could access them from another computer. The problem is most likely an issue with these users computer.

Here are a few things to try and test

– Reinstall the Citrix Receiver client

For our client, we found out that a virus was the culprit on these users computer because it has changed their IE’s proxy settings. Once the proxy settings is removed, they were able to access all the published applications.
