Prior to this upgrade, opening a managed application in the Console took around 6 seconds. The delay has not been improved but the window is displayed in 2 steps now. First, the edit application window is displayed after a few seconds with the message Loading data and after another few seconds it is filled in with details.

When an Agent signs in to a new Workspace Container, the Start Menu Tiles are restored if the migration of the user setting is set to Copy or Move.

The migration settings are configured under Console > Composition > User Settings > Settings tab > Migration Settings > Change button.

In Composition > Application > Application List, a new column called Network Learning Mode was added. It has reporting purpose, informing about Network Security running in learning mode for specific applications.

In the Edit application window, under Properties > General tab, two new fields were added: Custom Field 1 and Custom Field 2. They have information purpose only, so administrators can add notes. The notes are visible only in this dialog box.

Starting this version, the website usage tracking functionality is also available for Microsoft Edge.

A second Microsoft Edge entry without an icon is present in the Start Menu in Workspace Controlmanaged session after upgrading to 10.9.30.0 or higher.

In order for the resolution to work, the option Allow multiple shortcuts in Start Menu on the Managed Application for Microsoft Edge needs to be unchecked. This option can be found in the Console under Composition > Applications > Managed Application for Edge > Properties > Shortcuts.

In certain scenarios starting Microsoft Edge by using the Managed Shortcut in the Start Menu will re-introduce a duplicate entry for Microsoft Edge without an icon in the Start Menu. This can be prevented by renaming the Managed Application for Microsoft Edge. Replace the space in the name for the Managed Application Microsoft Edge by ALT+255 (hold down the ALT key while typing 255 on the numeric keypad).
