Why each option
The 'Prefer' keyword instructs Citrix Workspace app to launch the locally installed version of an application instead of the hosted virtual version when a local installation is detected on the endpoint.
Auto is not a recognized Citrix StoreFront or Workspace app keyword for controlling whether a local or hosted version of an application is launched.
When 'Prefer' is added as a keyword to an application's properties in StoreFront, the Citrix Workspace app checks whether a matching application is installed locally on the endpoint; if found, it launches the local executable rather than initiating a hosted virtual session, reducing server load and improving the user experience with native performance.
Primary is not a valid Citrix keyword for local application launch preference and has no defined behavior in the context of choosing between local and hosted application delivery.
Featured is a valid StoreFront keyword but its purpose is to promote specific applications to a highlighted section of the store UI, not to influence whether the local or hosted version of an application is launched.
