For more details, please see Microsoft’s guidance here: [Windows 11 release information](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/windows11-release-information) or [Windows 10 release information](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/release-information). ## Setup and installation Download and install the latest version of the Amazon WorkSpaces client application from [Amazon WorkSpaces Client Download](https://clients.amazonworkspaces.com/). You have two choices for how to install the Amazon WorkSpaces client application: + **Install just for you**. If you choose this option and you share your local machine with other users, the WorkSpaces client application is available only to you. If other users on the machine also want to use the WorkSpaces client application, they must install the application for their own use. + **Install for all users of this machine**. If you choose this option, the WorkSpaces client application is available to anyone who logs on to the local machine, including those with Guest accounts. Installing the WorkSpaces client application for all users requires you to have administrator privileges on your local machine. Depending on how your local machine is configured, you might not have such privileges. In that case, you can install the WorkSpaces client application just for yourself. If you have questions about which option to choose, ask your WorkSpaces administrator for guidance. ### Installing the USB redirection driver To use your local USB devices on the remote session, you will need to install the USB redirection driver. To install this driver, you will need to install the WorkSpaces application for all users, and then check the box to **Install driver for USB redirection**. ## Determine your client version To see which version of the WorkSpaces client you have, choose **Amazon WorkSpaces**, **About Amazon WorkSpaces**, or click the gear icon in the upper-right corner and choose **About Amazon WorkSpaces**. ## Client application updates The Amazon WorkSpaces client application on Windows will automatically check for available updates, and when new versions become available, will install them in the background when you’re not using it. Once the installation is complete, you simply need to open the client to begin using the latest version. This will provide you with faster access to the latest features, enhancements, and bug fixes without interrupting your productivity. Client updates maintain the same installation context as the original installation. This means if the Amazon WorkSpaces client was originally installed for all users on the local machine, future automatic updates will apply to all users. Similarly, if the client was installed for a single user, future updates will only apply to that specific user. Should you need to change this behavior, you can uninstall the client application and reinstall it under your preferred installation context. **Note** Automatic client updates are only applied when your client application is used to connect to WorkSpaces in the following regions. | AWS Region | Address | | --- | --- | | US East (N. Virginia) | us-east-1 | | US West (Oregon) | us-west-2 | | Africa (Cape Town) | af-south-1 | | Asia Pacific (Mumbai) | ap-south-1 | | Asia Pacific (Seoul) | ap-northeast-2 | | Asia Pacific (Singapore) | ap-southeast-1 | | Asia Pacific (Sydney) | ap-southeast-2 | | Asia Pacific (Tokyo) | ap-northeast-1 | | Canada (Central) | ca-central-1 | | Europe (Frankfurt) | eu-central-1 | | Europe (Ireland) | eu-west-1 | | Europe (London) | eu-west-2 | | Europe (Paris) | eu-west-3 | | Israel (Tel Aviv) | il-central-1 | | South America (São Paulo) | sa-east-1 | In any other regions not listed above, the Amazon WorkSpaces client application on Windows will not update automatically; you will instead see an message when a new version is available, and will have the option to install it. ### Opting out from automatic updates (Windows client only) We encourage you to take advantage of the new automatic client update feature so you always have access to the latest features, security patches, and bug fixes. However, if you or your administrator want to manage client updates manually, you can opt out by following these steps for Windows clients. **Note** Opting out from automatic updates is supported for the Windows client application only. Administrator privileges are required on the local device. #### To disable automatic updates: 1. Open the by Type "registry editor" in the Windows search box. 1. Right-click on **Registry Editor** and select **Run as administrator**. 1. If prompted for permission, choose **Yes**. 1. Open a command line. 1. Navigate to: `Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Amazon\`. 1. If it does not already exist, create a new Key called "Amazon WorkSpaces Client". 1. Within this key, create a new String Value named "clientUpgradeDisabled" and set its value to 1. 1. Either restart your computer or do the following to apply the changes: 1. Open the **Task Manager**. 1. Go to the **Processes** tab. 1. Search for one of the following: + For an "all users" installation, search for `WorkSpacesService.exe`. + For a "single user" installation, search for `WorkSpacesHelper.exe`. 1. Right-click and select **End process**. 1. For organizations managing multiple Windows devices, this registry setting can be deployed using Group Policy: ``` HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Amazon\Amazon WorkSpaces Client\clientUpgradeDisabled Type: REG_SZ Value: 1 ``` ## IPv6 network settings The WorkSpaces Windows client application supports connecting to your WorkSpace using IPv4, IPv6, or dual-stack (both IPv4 and IPv6) addresses. By default, IPv4 connections are used for streaming. IPv6 connections are disabled by default, meaning that your client application will exclusively use an IPv4 network for your connection. If you enable IPv6 connections, your client application will prioritize using an IPv6 network, but will fall back to using an IPv4 network if IPv6 is not available. **Note** IPv6 connections are supported on the WorkSpaces client application version 5.30.1 or later. You cannot change IPv6 connection settings if you are connected to your WorkSpace. Change the setting before connecting to your WorkSpace. Use the following procedure to enable IPv6 connections. ### To enable an IPv6 connection 1. In the WorkSpaces client application, navigate to **Settings >, Manage Connection Settings**. 1. Under **General Connection Settings**, choose **Prefer IPv6-enabled communications**. Alternatively, you can also enable IPv6 connections by using the following registry key: 1. On the Windows client, enter **registry editor** in the Windows search bar. 1. Right-click on **Registry Editor** and select **Run as administrator**. 1. If prompted for permission, choose **Yes**. 1. In the Registry Editor, navigate to: `Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Amazon\Amazon WorkSpaces Client\` 1. Within this key, create a new DWORD (Double Word) Value named `WSUseDualStackIPv6`. 1. Set its value to `1` to enable IPv6 preferred connections. Set its value to `0` to disable IPv6 preferred connection, and enable IPv4 connections exclusively. 1. Changes you make will take effect the next time you launch the WorkSpaces client application. Users can modify this setting, but it will revert to the default registry key value when the client is relaunched. ## Connect to your WorkSpace To connect to your WorkSpace, complete the following procedure. ### To connect to your WorkSpace for 3.0\$1 clients 1. The first time that you run the client application, you are prompted for your registration code, which is contained in your welcome email. The WorkSpaces client application uses the registration code and user name to identify which WorkSpace to connect to. When you launch the client application later, the same registration code is used. To enter a different registration code, launch the client application, and then choose **Change Registration Code** at the bottom of the login page. 1. Enter your sign-in credentials in the login screen and choose **Sign In**. If your WorkSpaces administrator has enabled multi-factor authentication for your organization's WorkSpaces, you are prompted for a passcode to complete your login. Your WorkSpaces administrator will provide more information about how to obtain your passcode. 1. If your WorkSpaces administrator has not disabled the **Keep me logged in** feature, you can select the **Keep me logged in** check box at the bottom of the login screen to save your credentials securely so that you can connect to your WorkSpace easily while the client application remains running. Your credentials are securely cached up to the maximum lifetime of your Kerberos ticket. After the client application connects to your WorkSpace, your WorkSpace desktop is displayed. An interruption of network connectivity causes an active session to be disconnected. This can be caused by events such as closing the laptop lid, or the loss of your wireless network connection. The WorkSpaces client application for Windows attempts to reconnect the session automatically if network connectivity is regained within a certain amount of time. The default session resume timeout is 20 minutes, but this timeout can be modified by your network administrator. ## Manage your login information (3.0\$1 clients only) You can view your registration code and what Region your WorkSpace is in. You can specify whether you want the WorkSpaces client application to save your current registration code, and you can assign a name to your WorkSpace. You can also specify if you want Amazon WorkSpaces to keep you logged in to a WorkSpace until you quit or your login period expires. **To manage your login information for a WorkSpace** 1. In the WorkSpaces client application, go to **Settings**, **Manage Login Information**. 1. In the **Manage Login Information** dialog box, you can see the registration code and Region information for your WorkSpace. 1. (Optional) If you want the WorkSpaces client to remember your current registration code, select the **Remember Registration Code** check box. 1. Under **Saved registration codes**, select the WorkSpace that you want to name. 1. In the **WorkSpace name** box, enter a name for the WorkSpace. 1. (Optional) If you want WorkSpaces to keep you logged in until you quit or your login period expires, select the **Keep me logged in** check box. 1. Choose **Save**. ## Client views You can switch to full screen mode by choosing **View**, **Enter Full Screen** (3.0\$1 clients) in the client application menu. While in full screen mode, you can switch back to window mode by moving the pointer to the top of the screen. The client application menu is displayed, and you can choose **View**, **Leave Full Screen** (3.0\$1 clients) in the client application menu. You can also toggle full screen mode by pressing Ctrl\$1Alt\$1Enter. ## Client language You can select the language displayed by the client by performing the following steps. **Note** The WorkSpaces client applications support Japanese. However, Japanese WorkSpaces are available only in the Asia Pacific (Tokyo) Region. **To select the client language** 1. Depending on which client you're using, do one of the following. [\[See the AWS documentation website for more details\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/userguide/amazon-workspaces-windows-client.html) 1. Enter your desired language in the **Select a language** list and choose **Save**. 1. Restart the client. ## Display support WorkSpaces WorkSpaces Value, Standard, Performance, Power, PowerPro, and GPU-enabled bundles support a maximum of four displays and a maximum resolution of 3840x2160 (ultra-high definition, or UHD). The maximum supported resolution depends on the number of displays, as shown in the following table. | Displays | Resolution | | --- | --- | | 2 | 3840x2160 | | 4 | 1920x1200 | **Note** You can only extend the display. You cannot duplicate the display. Duplicating the display will cause your session to be disconnected. The WorkSpaces client application extracts the Extended Display Information Data (EDID) of all attached displays and determines the best compatibility match before starting the session. If you have a high pixel density (high DPI) display, the client application automatically scales the streaming window according to your local DPI settings. For better maximum resolution with high DPI displays, see [Enabling high DPI display for WorkSpaces](high_dpi_support.md). **To use multiple monitors with WorkSpaces** 1. Configure your local machine to use multiple monitors. For more information, see [ How to use multiple monitors in Windows 10](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/how-to-use-multiple-monitors-in-windows-329c6962-5a4d-b481-7baa-bec9671f728a) in the Microsoft documentation. 1. Start the WorkSpaces client application and log in to your WorkSpace. 1. Depending on which client you're using, do one of the following: [\[See the AWS documentation website for more details\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/userguide/amazon-workspaces-windows-client.html) Your WorkSpace should now be extended across your displays. Whichever display you have designated as your primary display is also the primary display in WorkSpaces when you enter full screen mode. **Note** Using full screen mode on only some of the displays in a multiple monitor setup isn't possible. You can, however, press the Windows logo key \$1 Up Arrow or use the maximize button in the upper-right corner of the WorkSpaces window to maximize the WorkSpaces client window on a display without extending the WorkSpace to the other displays. ## Proxy servers If your network requires you to use a proxy server to access the internet, you can enable your WorkSpaces client application to use a proxy for HTTPS (port 443) traffic. The WorkSpaces client applications use the HTTPS port for updates, registration, and authentication. **Note** The desktop streaming connections to the WorkSpace require ports 4172 and 4195 to be enabled, and do not go through the proxy server. Proxy servers that require authentication with sign-in credentials are not supported. ### To control the proxy server for 3.0\$1 clients By default, the 3.0\$1 Windows clients use the proxy server that's specified in the device operating system settings. The first time the client is launched, the device operating system proxy server setting is used. If you select another option for the proxy server, that setting is used for subsequent launches of the client. If a proxy server is specified at both the operating system level and in the WorkSpaces client, the client setting is used. Starting with version 3.0.12 of the Windows client, you can also choose not to use a proxy server. **Note** In versions 3.0.0 through 3.0.11, if you specify a custom proxy server, a "No network" error might appear when you attempt to log in to your WorkSpace. If you want to use a custom proxy server with the Windows client, we recommend upgrading to the latest version. 1. In the WorkSpaces client application, go to **Settings**, **Manage Proxy Server**. 1. In the **Set Proxy** dialog box, select the appropriate options, depending on which version of the 3.0\$1 client you have. + **Windows client version 3.1.3 or later** — To disable usage of a proxy server, select **Don't use proxy server**. If you select **Don't use proxy server**, no proxy server is used when you access the internet. To use a proxy server, choose one of the following options, and then choose **Save**: + **Use your device operating system settings** — This option uses the proxy server settings for your operating system. + **Customize proxy server for WorkSpaces** — Enter the URL or IP address and the port for your custom proxy server. + **Windows client versions 3.0.12, 3.1.0, and 3.1.2** — To enable or disable usage of a proxy server, select or deselect **Use proxy server**. If you deselect **Use proxy server**, no proxy server is used when you access the internet. If you've selected **Use proxy server**, choose one of the following options, and then choose **Save**: + **Use your device operating system settings** — This option uses the proxy server settings for your operating system. + **Customize proxy server for WorkSpaces** — Enter the URL or IP address and the port for your custom proxy server. + **Windows client version 3.0.11 or earlier** — By default, these versions of the client use the proxy server specified in the device operating system settings. To use a custom proxy server, choose **Use proxy server**, enter the URL or IP address and the port for the proxy server, and then choose **Save**. ## Command shortcuts The WorkSpaces Windows client supports the following command shortcuts: + Ctrl\$1Alt\$1Enter—Toggle full screen display + Ctrl\$1Alt\$1F12—Disconnect session ## Disconnect To disconnect the Windows client application, you have several options: + In the Amazon WorkSpaces client application, go to **Amazon WorkSpaces**, and then choose **Disconnect WorkSpace**. Your WorkSpace session ends, but the client application continues running in case you want to log in again. + In the Amazon WorkSpaces client application, go to **Amazon WorkSpaces**, and then choose **End Session**. When ending the session, you'll be prompted to save open documents. Selecting **End Session** in the prompt will disconnect you from the WorkSpaces client user session. **Note** This option is available only for WorkSpaces Pools. + In the Amazon WorkSpaces client application, go to **Amazon WorkSpaces**, and then choose **Quit Amazon WorkSpaces**. Your WorkSpace session ends, and the client application closes. + In the Amazon WorkSpaces client application, close the WorkSpaces client window by clicking the close (X) button in the upper-right corner. This disconnects the session and returns you to the application homepage. + You can also log off of the WorkSpace. In the Amazon WorkSpaces client application, go to **View**, and then choose **Send Ctrl\$1Alt\$1Delete**. Choose **Sign Out**. Your WorkSpace session ends, but the client application continues running in case you want to log in again. ## Clipboard support The clipboard supports a maximum uncompressed object size of 20 MB. For more information, see [I'm having trouble copying and pasting](client_troubleshooting.md#copy_paste). **Note** When copying from a Microsoft Office app, the clipboard only contains the last copied item, and the item is converted into standard format. If you copy content larger than 890 KB from a Microsoft Office app, the app might become slow or unresponsive for up to 5 seconds. ## Manage hardware acceleration Starting with version 5.0.0, hardware acceleration is enabled by default when you're using the Amazon WorkSpaces Windows client application. **Note** If you plan to upgrade to a version between 3.1.4 and 5.0.0, and if you've disabled hardware acceleration for version 3.1.3 or earlier by using the [procedure described later in this section](#hardware_acceleration_313), make sure that you re-enable hardware acceleration in Windows by setting the **DisableHWAcceleration** registry key to **0**. Then you can upgrade to a version between 3.1.4 and 5.0.0 of the WorkSpaces Windows client application. If you're experiencing high CPU usage or slower performance when using the client, you might want to enable hardware acceleration in the client. **Note** If you enable hardware acceleration in the Windows client, the following issues might occur with a few video driver versions: The screen might have flickering black boxes in some places. The screen might not properly update on the WorkSpaces login page, or it might not properly update after you log in to your WorkSpace. You might see artifacts on the screen. Your mouse clicks might not be lined up with the cursor position on the screen. ### To enable hardware acceleration in version 3.1.5 or later of the Windows client 1. Choose **Settings**, **Manage Hardware Acceleration**. 1. In the **Manage Hardware Acceleration** dialog box, select **Enable Hardware Acceleration for Amazon WorkSpaces**, and then choose **Save**. 1. For this change to take effect, choose **Amazon WorkSpaces**, **Quit Amazon WorkSpaces** to close the Windows client application. 1. Restart the WorkSpaces Windows client application. Hardware acceleration should now be enabled. After you've enabled hardware acceleration in the Windows client, if the screen and mouse issues described earlier occur, clear the **Enable Hardware Acceleration for Amazon WorkSpaces** check box to disable hardware acceleration, and then restart the Windows client application. WorkSpaces administrators can enable hardware acceleration in version 3.1.4 or later of the WorkSpaces Windows client by using the following commands in a Command Prompt or PowerShell window. 1. Use the following command to check for the **EnableHwAcc** registry key. ``` reg query "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Amazon Web Services. LLC\Amazon WorkSpaces" /v EnableHwAcc ``` 1. Use the following command to add the **EnableHwAcc** registry key. ``` reg add "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Amazon Web Services. LLC\Amazon WorkSpaces" /v EnableHwAcc ``` This registry setting takes effect after the WorkSpaces Windows client is closed and restarted. If needed, use the following command to delete the **EnableHwAcc** registry key. ``` reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Amazon Web Services. LLC\Amazon WorkSpaces" /v EnableHwAcc /f ``` This registry setting takes effect after the WorkSpaces Windows client is closed and restarted. ### To disable hardware acceleration in version 3.1.5 or later of the Windows client 1.
