Oxygen XML Forum

A customer would like to use the oxygen editor in a Citrix environment during a training course. Is there a problem there? Is there anything to consider?

Hello,

Oxygen requires that the user profile is persistent between sessions. This is necessary for Oxygen so that it can keep its license information and user settings (last used project and edited documents). So the environment needs to be configured accordingly to accommodate this.

It is important that no licensing information (license key) is configured directly in the application installed on the server ("golden image"), if that image will be used for multiple instances/users. Each user needs to license the application individually, or a license server should be used.

If there is no persistent Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), then the only way to use Oxygen in such an environment (terminal server, application virtualization server, virtual machine environment) is to configure the application from the "golden image" instance to request licenses from a central license server that is installed in a static environment.

To clarify, Oxygen XML Editor keeps its user license information and user settings in "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\com.oxygenxml".
Technically it's "%APPDATA%\com.oxygenxml".

For Oxygen XML Author that's "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\com.oxygenxml.author", "%APPDATA%\com.oxygenxml.author".
