Looks like Citrix is doing quite well. Particularly with XenDesktop which seems to be eclipsing XenApp (there flagship product) in revenue. Funnily enough all this was before Xen Desktop 5 came out which in my mind was a huge...

.bat,
batch scripts,
file associations,
Group Policy,
notepad,
XenappI encountered this issue a little while back and in hindsight in turned out to be pretty simple but it was driving me nuts at the time.

Citrix,
force,
uninstall,
XenappSo to uninstall Citrix you have to have the Citrix IMA service running properly. Which of course begs the question of what you do when you are trying to uninstall because the IMA service ISN'T working properly in the first case?

Citrix,

streaming,
Xen,
XenappI really like Citrix Xenapp 5's ability to publish app's by streaming them to the server. For those not familiar with this you package the application (office, etc) using the citrix app packager.
