Important Note(s) about this Release

  • Caution! This hotfix may require you to edit the registry. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Citrix cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
  • When you upgrade the agent software, the process.xml, applist.ini, and mfrmlist.ini files are backed up in their original folder location by the upgrade process. This preserves the agent settings; to revert to those settings, replace the process.xml, applist.ini, and mfrmlist.ini files created by the upgrade process with these backed up files.
  • A full installation of the agent software deletes any previous installation files and information related to previous installations.
  • Canceling the installation of the agent software may delete previous installation files and information related to previous installations. This might cause the client device to become unstable, requiring the agent software be repaired or re-installed.

Issue(s) Resolved in this Hotfix

  1. On occasion, the Password Manager Agent software cannot contact the license server; the error message "Cannot connect to License Server. Password Manager Agent will run in grace period mode” is displayed.

    [#154152]

  2. Hidden password change forms are not recognized by the agent software when they are made visible.

    [#156844]

  3. CPU usage might spike on client devices where both the Password Manager Agent software and other types of client software that support embedded web browser controls. After applying this fix, set the following registry key to block unsupported web host software:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\MetaFrame Password Manager\Extensions\AccessManager
    Name: UnsupportedWebHost
    Type: REG_SZ
    Data: the executable name(s) of the program(s) to block, such as abc_ftp.exe

    [#158247]

  4. Agent software installed on certain client devices might experience a delay between starting and recognizing applications.

    [#162182]

  5. If the submit button for a logon form is not enabled when the Web page is first loaded by the browser, the agent software might populate the form correctly but not submit the credentials to the application.

    [#163068]
