Access to my documents and OneDrive with UiO Program kiosk

The first time you open VMWare Horizon Client, you will be asked if you want to share local files with the session, here you should select YES. If you do this, your local documents will be available in all applications you use in the UiO Program kiosk.

If you didn't do this the first time, see I can't find my documents or chose not to share the first time I used VMware, below.

Where can I find the documents?

If you open a file dialog in a program you open in the UiO Program kiosk or File Explorer, you will find the documents at the bottom of the left area of ??the file view under This PC and Username at (Z:)". In other words, your local files or home area are under Z:\ in the UiO Program kiosk.
