CTX340098 is redundant to CTX339975, neither of which is good news. Setting aside the headache of getting the registry workaround to many users, said workaround will cease to work for Edge/Chrome version 101 expected to be released in April/May. In a perfect world, you just convert users to VPN client or Workspace but if a VPN gateway includes homepage of ICA gateway, you’re out of luck. Clicking the home page link on Native client launches browser to authenticate through Web Page back to the Gateway. Back to square one… you can’t use VPN client to access ICA gateway and you can’t use Workspace to access VPN. If you are using VPN/ICA on same platform, a browser login is your only option… All this to say, hopefully Citrix gets an actual fix for this soon.
FYI, the Citrix fix for this issue is an updated client. I am currently beta-testing the version in which they have resolved this. No ETA but I would expect to see that in GA within a month given the potential impact.
