Citrix Receiver 3.2 – allow for unsecure “accounts” (Windows)

By default the new Citrix Receiver 3.2 doesn’t seem to allow for unsecure PNAgent URLs, but I managed to find this Citrix KB that tells how to change that through the Windows registry.

Error: Cannot Process Provisioning File – see Resolution 4 section

To allow Citrix Receiver 3.1 add unsecure accounts complete the following procedure in the Windows registry:

Caution! This procedure requires you to edit the registry. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that might require you to reinstall your operating system. Citrix cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. Back up the registry before you edit it.
  1. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\AuthManager
    (for 64-bit machines, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Citrix\AuthManager)
  2. Create a new String value called ConnectionSecurityMode.
  3. Set the value to Any.
  4. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\Dazzle
    (for 64-bit machines, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Citrix\DazzleB)
  5. Modify the String value called AllowAddStore to A.
