If you are looking for the specific Windows Feature or Runtime required to run Citrix Workspace on a machine that needs to support .NET Core 8.0 (or later) applications, you are likely looking for the .NET Desktop Runtime.

However, the answer depends on whether you are an End User trying to fix an error or an Administrator configuring a VDA (Virtual Desktop Agent). Here is the text you requested, specifying the

Here is the breakdown of the proper features and requirements.

Error 3: “Cannot establish SSO from Linux Workspace App”

Fix:

Then restart the Workspace App service.

2. For Citrix VDA Administrators (Server OS)

If you are building a Windows Server image (e.g., Server 2022) to host desktops or apps and need .NET 8 support: Minimum Version Required:

You typically do not add .NET 8 via the "Add Roles and Features" wizard in Windows Server (that wizard usually only lists legacy .NET 3.5 and 4.8).

The proper procedure is:

Install .NET Framework 4.8: (Usually pre-installed on Server 2022, but ensure it is enabled via Server Manager > Add Roles and Features > Features > .NET Framework 4.8).
Install .NET 8 Runtime: Download and install the .NET Desktop Runtime 8.0 manually on the master image before installing the Citrix VDA software.
- Note: Citrix VDA installation checks for prerequisites. Modern VDA versions (2402, 2407, etc.) may require .NET 8 runtimes for their own internal services (like the "Citrix Desktop Service") to function correctly.

3. Custom Workspace Scripts (PowerShell SDK)

Citrix provides PowerShell modules for automating workspace configurations. Starting with the Citrix.DaaS SDK version 2.0, .NET 6.0 is required. Many admins mistakenly think Citrix Workspace App itself fails — but the issue is missing .NET runtime on the management machine.

2. Deployment Methods

You should install .NET 8.0 on your "Master Image" (MCS/PVS) before sealing it.
