Ivanti Start Menu

The Ivanti Start Menu can be configured to include application shortcuts for Workspace Control managed or unmanaged applications.

Workspace Control managed applications are configured in the Workspace Control Console, under Composition > Applications > Start Menu tab. For more details, see Start Menu tab.

To control the behavior of Workspace Control when handling application shortcuts, open the Workspace Control Console and navigate to Composition > Applications > Settings tab. Configure whether managed applications are fully implemented, partially implemented or disabled altogether. You can also configure Start Menu behavior settings. For more details, see Settings tab.

Application shortcuts can be filtered using the Search field at the bottom of the Ivanti Start Menu. Enter a search criteria and Workspace Control displays only the application shortcuts that contain the entered text.

Select to clear the Search field and display all application shortcuts.
