120. How to enable EzeScan DESKTOP for individual per use configuration for Citrix style environments

If EzeScan DESKTOP is required to be used in a Citrix / RDS /VMware view style environment then the EzeScan configuration needs to be configured as a per-user application instead of a standard workstation configuration.

The way this is configured is that a "master" configuration profile is stored in a folder (On the EzeScan Authority Server) and when a new user or a new user (or configuration changes have been made to the "master") EzeScan will pull down the new configuration to deploy to the user.

Please note: that this configuration is designed for use under our concurrent license model only.

📘 To set this up…

1. Setup master configuration

   1. Confirm EzeScan is on 4.3.201 or above.

   2. In the C:\Program Files (x86)\Outback Imaging\EzeScan\Resources\Override.ini -> Add the following line under the [Folder Paths] section
      Common Data=%APPDATA%\Outback Imaging\EzeScan
      Save the file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Outback Imaging\EzeScan\

   3. Load EzeScan → Select Admin → Workstation Options → Config Tab
      Confirm the Application data directory is pointing to the respective users APPDATA path -> Click Save to close

   4. Configure the license and workflows as required.
      

2. Configure Deployment Settings

   • It is now time to configure the configuration profile share to allow other users use this configuration. Please refer to https://docs.ezescan.com.au/ezescan-authority-server/5.1/installation

   • The latest version of Authority server is available to download from
