Key Highlights for Opening an ICA File in Windows 10
What Is an ICA File? An ICA (Independent Computing Architecture) file is used by Citrix products to launch and manage remote desktops or applications.
Install Citrix Workspace: To open ICA files, you need to install Citrix Workspace. Download it from the [Citrix website](https://www.citrix.com/downloads/workspace-app/) and follow the installation steps.
Opening the ICA File: After installation, simply double-click the ICA file to open it with Citrix Workspace. You may be prompted to enter authentication details before the virtual desktop or app launches.
Configure File Association (Optional): If ICA files don’t automatically open with Citrix Workspace, set Citrix Workspace as the default app by right-clicking the ICA file and selecting Open with > Citrix Workspace.
Troubleshooting: Update Citrix Workspace if it's not launching. Ensure the correct login credentials are entered if authentication issues occur. For corrupted ICA files, request a new copy from IT support.
