Updating Citrix Receiver is a client-side action that does not change how StoreFront instructs the client to launch desktops.

The desktop viewer setting adjusts the toolbar and windowing mode for an already-launched desktop but does not prevent the desktop from automatically launching at logon.

The web.config file for a StoreFront store contains configuration elements that govern how desktops and applications are presented and launched, including the unified receiver experience and auto-launch behavior. By editing the appropriate XML settings in this file, an administrator can disable the automatic full screen launch of Desktop OS machines, requiring users to manually start them instead. This is the correct server-side approach to controlling launch behavior globally for users of that store.

There is no auto-launch policy configurable on the Delivery Controller that suppresses full screen desktop launch; this behavior is governed by StoreFront store configuration.
