Please note the following limitations about your AVEVA™ Unified Engineering – Browser Access desktop:
-
Due to security policies and Service Level Agreement requirements, you do not have administrator privileges. As a result, you can only perform actions permitted for a standard Windows user.
-
Due to security policies and Service Level Agreement requirements, the following Application Control restrictions are in place:
-
You can only run signed binary, vbs, js & cmd scripts

-
By default, the session disconnect timeout is set to 15 minutes. Your streaming session will remain active for up to 15 minutes after an unintentional disconnect (such as closing the browser or a network interruption). After this period, the session will end, and you will be connected to a new session with a fresh instance. If you choose to end your session using the 'End Session' option on the toolbar, the timeout does not apply. Instead, you will be prompted to save any open documents and then immediately disconnected.
-
Each session has a maximum duration of 960 minutes (16 hours). After this time, the Workspaces Applications (formerly AppStream 2.0) session will end, and any unsaved work or files will be lost. A warning message with a 5-minute countdown will appear before termination.
-
.NET customization of the AVEVA™ Unified Engineering application user interface is not supported. The use of PML1 and PML2 customization are supported.
