== Making RemoteApps Available to Users via RD Web Access ==
By default, RemoteApps are configured to be accessible via RD Web Access (for details on installing and configuring the RD Web Access service role refer read [[Configuring Windows Server 2008 R2 RD Web Access]]). As outlined above this setting can be checked during the RemoteApp configuration process by verifying that the RemoteApp is available through RD Web Access box is set in the properties dialog. This setting can be modified at any time by right clicking on the RemoteApp program in question on the RemoteApp Manager RemoteApp Programs list and selecting either the ''Show in RD Web Access'' or ''Hide in RD Web Access'' menu option.
Assuming that the RemoteApp programs are configured for RD Web Access, simply open a browser window and enter the URL of the RD Web Access page, the format of which is typically as follows (where server is the name or IP address of the RD Session Host Server system):
Having made the appropriate settings, click the Connect button. The RemoteApp launcher will then prompt for the login and password credentials of a user on the RD Session Host. Note that this user must be either an administrator or be a member of the Remote Desktop user group. Once the connection is established the remote application will appear in a window on the local desktop just as a local running application would appear.
