Citrix at DTU (remote.dtu.dk)
Remote.dtu.dk is a remote desktop solution from Citrix, that allows you to use Microsoft Office applications and other software. You can connect from Mac, Linux, iPad and Windows.
Connecting to remote.dtu.dk from Windows
- Go to https://remote.dtu.dk and login with your DTU credentials.

Click on the plus-sign to the left, to see all available applications. Clicking on an application in the list, will pin it to the front-page. When an application has been run at least once from the front-page, it will also be added to your menu on your Windows computer, and can seamlessly run, without access to remote.dtu.dk in a browser first.
Notice that you can also get access to a full desktop, where all the applications are available too. Either choose "DTU Office 2010 IE11 Desktop" or "DTU Office 2016 IE11 Desktop" from the list.
If you have any mounted network-drives on your Windows computer, these will be available inside Citrix applications/desktop.
