    webtop opens in explorer but user wants to access certain url in chrome .i mean links would be displayed in webtop and when user will click on these links, it should be opened in chrome.

    why can't the user open the webtop in chrome, that would solve the whole issue.

     

    you can launch applications from the webtop, but that is meant to be used together with application tunnels. with that you might be able to get something working.

    Hello,

     

    Application Launch should work:

     

    Application Path = chrome.exe

     

    Parameters = webpage_with_links_to_your_apps (hosted on big-ip or anywhere else)

     

    Operating System = Windows

     

    Also, sometimes it's better to use the other ways to organize access to the remote apps: Portal Access, or LTM + APM.
