Hello, we have Citrix servers where Reader DC is installed. I was spending time checking the processes running on the server and there were many, many instances of RdrCEF.exe running. After doing some research on this process I'm still not clear on what it does. Is it used for Reader updates? Is it used for syncing cloud services? Maybe both? Different posts say different things. Either way, we update Reader through other means and we do not need the cloud service, so we do not need or want RdrCEF running. I've searched and searched, but cannot find anything about how to stop this process from running other than renaming the .exe file.
I saw this post below where other people were complaining about it on Citrix servers too, but there was nothing in there about stopping RdrCEF from running.
I have implemented these registry keys, but RdrCEF.exe still runs. Am I missing other registry keys to stop the RdrCEF.exe from launching? Is there anything else I can do, other than rename the .exe file?
