Manage Server Shortcuts
After you connect to a server, Horizon Client creates a server shortcut. You can edit and remove server
shortcuts.
Horizon Client saves the server name or IP address in a shortcut, even if you mistype the server name or
type the wrong IP address. You can delete or change this information by editing the server name or IP
address. If you do not type a server description, the server name or IP address becomes the server
description.
