Citrix now supports Dragging and then dropping files between a Citrix session and a local endpoint.
You can drag and then drop files, groups of files, directories, groups of directories, or a combination of files and directories to and from the same client on the session. This ability applies to a desktop session or a seamless app. This includes the desktop, Explorer window, and some applications.

Instructions
On CVAD 2003, To enable drag-and-drop, make the following registry setting on the host:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesCtxDNDSvc
Name: Enabled
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1
After you enable the registry value, and if using the required Citrix Workspace app version, drag-and-drop is enabled after the next session logon.
From CVAD 2012, we have a new policy ‘Drag and Drop’ in the Studio to accomplish the same task. This feature is enabled by default.
