Due to the anticipated number of students and staff using VPN to access their filespace, we recommend copying any files you will need for the remainder of the semester from your filespace to a UW-affiliated storage option, such as Box, Google Drive, or Microsoft OneDrive.
If you will be using XenApp and will be accessing files or folders that were shared from other students and staff, we would recommend using Box, as shared Box files and folders will show show up in XenApp through Kumo, while files and folders shared in Google Drive or OneDrive will not. If you are not going to use any shared files, all 3 options will work and show up in XenApp via Kumo.
To allow XenApp to access your files in Box, Google Drive, or OneDrive, please link your accounts to Kumo.
