title: Keyboard shortcut to toggle OUT of a Citrix Workspace Desktop Viewer session
body: <p><strong>Background</strong></p>
  <p>I'm using the Desktop Viewer functionality in Citrix Workspace (version 20.2.0.25(2002)) to access my work computer from my home computer.</p>
  <p><strong>Request</strong></p>
  <p>I would like to be able to toggle <em>out</em> of my (full-screen) remote session back to my local desktop more easily.</p>
  <p>Currently I can only accomplish this via the control bar at the top of the remote session screen which is starting to feel tedious.

  <p><code>Alt+Tab</code> doesn't work, because it only toggles the applications within the remote session when the session is open.</p>
  <p>Whether toggling is accomplished via getting <code>Alt+Tab</code> to work as desired, a hotkey that just minimizes the session window, or some other method doesn't matter to me.</p>
  <p><strong>What I've Tried</strong></p>
  <p>There are many <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21528052/what-is-the-keyboard-shortcut-to-switch-between-open-applications-inside-citrix">questions</a> online addressing how to <em>enable</em> <code>Alt+Tab</code> within the remote session, but not <em>disable</em> it.  Naturally I've tried to do the reverse of these instructions but no luck.  They typically suggest setting <code>TransparentKeyPassthrough=Remote</code> in the registry of the local machine, so I figured mine should have <code>Remote</code> already and I would just need to clear it or replace it with something else, but mine is a null value.</p>
  <p>I've gone through all options within Citrix Workspace and the Remote session Preferences but there's nothing about enabling/disabling/setting hotkeys.</p>
  <p>I tried the &quot;Disable Hotkeys through the ICACLIENT.ADM Template&quot; of this <a href="https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX140219" rel="noreferrer">Citrix Support page</a>, but was unable to locate the icaclient template file they refer to.</p>
  <p>I've contacted my company's help desk but they don't know of any solutions.</p>
