For the past few days, I’ve been fighting trying to rearrange the order of RemoteApp programs in Web Access. I figured out that it was sorting based on the name of the RemoteApp’s RDP file. I just couldn’t figure out how to change the name of an App’s RDP file without breaking everything. Tonight, I was installing a new app onto one of my TS machines and I happened to notice that when you right click on an App in RemoteApp manager and select properties there is a field called alias. This alias field corresponds to the name of the RDP file. When you change the name here, it will rename the file and update Web Access. By changing the names here (and knowing that Web Access goes in alphabetical order of these aliases) you can rearrange the order of RemoteApps in Web Access.
