Issue/Question
How can I save my work to an USB drive while AppStreaming?
Any work not saved to an external source (e.g., your device, a network drive, or a cloud service like OneDrive) will be destroyed and lost when the connection is closed and cannot be recovered.
Environment
Resolution
Saving to an external/USB drive is currently only available to Windows devices running the VMware Horizon Client app.
If your Windows device's home directory does not automatically appear as the Z drive in the streamed app, you can follow the instructions below to mount your C:/ drive manually.
- Open and log in to VMware Horizon Client app.
- Click Settings.
- Click Drive Sharing.
- Click Add.
- Navigate to the drive/folder you want to use in Horizon.
- Click Select Folder.
- Click Apply.
- Launch the desired app.
- When you are ready to save your work, click File > Save As.
- Click This PC. Your drive/folder will appear in the Network Locations section.
Note: Each drive/folder you specify will appear as separate network locations.
