Install
Jun 19, 2017
The CitrixReceiver.exe installation package can be installed in the following methods:
By a user from Citrix.com or your own download site
A first-time user who obtains Citrix Receiver for Windows from Citrix.com or your own download site can set up an
account by entering an email address instead of a server URL. Citrix Receiver for Windows determines the NetScaler
Gateway or StoreFront Server associated with the email address and prompts the user to log on and continue the
installation. This feature is referred to as "email-based account discovery."
Note: A first-time user is one who does not have Citrix Receiver for Windows installed on the device.
Email-based account discovery for a first-time user does not apply if Citrix Receiver for Windows is downloaded from
a location other than Citrix.com (such as a Receiver for Web site).
If your site requires configuration of Citrix Receiver for Windows, use an alternate deployment method.
Automatically from Receiver for Web or from a Web Interface logon screen.
A first-time user can set up an account by entering a server URL or downloading a provisioning (CR) file.
Using an Electronic Software Distribution (ESD) tool
A first-time user must enter a server URL or open a provisioning file to set up an account.
Citrix Receiver for Windows does not require administrator rights to install unless you are using pass-through
authentication.
A single installer now combines the latest Citrix Receiver for Windows with the HDX RTME installer. When installing Citrix
Receiver by using the executable file (.exe), the HDX RTME is installed as well.
If you have installed the HDX RealTime Media Engine, when you uninstall and then reinstall Citrix Receiver for Windows,
ensure that you use the same mode that you used to install the HDX RTME.
Note
Installing the latest version of Citrix Receiver with integrated RTME support requires administrative privileges on the host machine.
Consider the following HDX RTME issues when installing or upgrading Citrix Receiver for Windows:
The latest version of Citrix ReceiverPlusRTME contains HDX RTME; no further installation is required to install RTME.
Upgrading from a previous Citrix Receiver for Windows version to the latest bundled version (Citrix Receiver with RTME) is
supported. Previously installed versions of RTME are overwritten with the latest version; upgrading from the same Citrix
Receiver for Windows version to the latest bundled version (for example, Receiver 4.7 to the bundled Receiver 4.7 plus
RTME) is not supported.
If you have an earlier version of RTME, installing the latest Citrix Receiver for Windows version automatically updates the
RTME on the client device.
If a more recent version of RTME is present, the installer retains the latest version.
