This document describes the issue(s) resolved by this release and includes installation instructions. For additional product information, see Citrix eDocs, the Citrix Product Documentation Library.

New Fixes in This Release (Administration Package)

  1. This enhancement adds a filter for .cmd files to the Browse dialog of the Schedule Command-line task.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.002][#234146]

Fixes from Replaced Hotfixes (Administration Package)

  1. When browsing from Advanced options, administrative shares (like c$ , D$, and similar) are displayed in the folder dialog box.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#219091]

  2. When pointing to a subfolder of Advanced Options > Shared folder, the following error occurs: "Error -303: Failed to assign read permissions of computer to the path."

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#219153]

  3. When a task is removed from the Installation Manager Administration snap-in, the task is removed from the Task Scheduler but not from the task history. As a result, old tasks are still enumerated in the Administration snap-in. This enhancement allows you to remove tasks from both the Task Scheduler and the task history.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#222011]

  4. This enhancement introduces the ability to browse for and select Active Directory groups for selected targets.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#229957]

  5. With this enhancement, the Browse dialog starting folder is the folder most recently accessed from the Browse dialog rather than a local default location.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#229960]

New Fixes in This Release (Utility Package)

  1. While installing IMUtil, a dialog box appears asking for user permission to set a PowerShell execution policy.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.002][#233454]

Fixes from Replaced Hotfixes (Utility Package)

  1. Transform (.mst) files fail to get applied to .msi files during installation.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#206985]

  2. When using a GPO to deploy the XA50_IM_UTIL_X64.msi or XA50_IM_UTIL_X86.msi files and selecting the option to disable the language check, the German language version of the program is installed.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#212397]

  3. While installing IMUtil in silent mode, a dialog box appears requiring user interaction to open firewall ports.

    [From XA50_IM_1.1.001][#212423]
