How to close a Citrix session

How to close a problematic App in Citrix and start a new session

This can be useful if an app hangs up or Citrix automatically opens files that had been previously worked on.

1. Launch the light version of Citrix in web browser, at https://remote.engr.wisc.edu. If you installed Citrix Workspace on your computer, and set it up to launch programs from a browser in the app, you may need to use an Incognito or InPrivate window so it doesn't automatically launch the app in Workspace.
   
2. Launch an app.  The example used in the screenshots will be EES, but whichever app is hanging will work.
3. Click on the Menu Bar at the top-center or left-middle of the screen to open the Toolbar. 
   
     
4. Click Disconnect/Log out
     
5.  Click "Log Out"
     
This should close the program, as well as the window that was open.  The next time you launch an app it should start a fresh session.
