The recent apps in the start menu are not displayed by the Citrix Receiver. Only the recent apps from a local app or shortcuts from GPO’s are shown. The registry key values are saved but are not displayed.  If the users have icons in the start menu from a second worker group, the keys are created in the uninstall Hive and the recent apps are displays correctly.

By default, Receiver creates two registry entries in HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\Current\Run. 

• "ConnectionCenter"="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Citrix\\ICA Client\\concentr.exe\" /startup" 
• "Redirector"="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Citrix\\ICA Client\\redirector.exe\" /startup" 

You may add SelfService.exe as third entry and remove it from HKCU if it is there:
