To improve Chrome’s security and stability, Google announced late last year that NPAPI plugin support, a capability we’ve depended on for years, will be disabled by default in Chrome in April 2015. The NPAPI plugin that Receiver for Windows and Mac install enables Receiver for Web to detect that Receiver is installed and enables users to launch applications simply by clicking on them. The removal of NPAPI support will affect user experience for users who access Citrix Receiver for Web using the Chrome browser on Windows and Mac.

1. Users will be prompted to install Citrix Receiver every time they access the Receiver for Web site.

2. An ICA file will be saved when users try to launch an application or desktop. They have to click the ICA file at the bottom of the browser to activate the launch.

3. Workspace control will be disabled on Windows.

While we are actively working on new technology that will replace our dependency on NPAPI plugins, there are some workarounds you can take in the short term. Here are what you can do.

Re-Enable NPAPI

1. Open Chrome and browse to chrome://flags/#enable-npapi

2. Click the Enable NPAPI setting.

3. After that, click “Relaunch Now” at the bottom of your Chrome window. Note: Closing and reopening Chrome is not sufficient, you must click the “Relaunch Now” button.
