***NOTE: IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A VERSION OF CITRIX RECEIVER INSTALLED YOU WILL NEED TO COMPLETELY UNINSTALL BEFORE REVIEWING THIS TUTORIAL.***
Same problem: I have MacOS 10.13.3 on both an iMac and 2012-era MacBook Air. When I upgraded from Receiver 12.7 to 12.8, the system crashed about every 15 minutes or so. I had to uninstall 12.8 and reinstall 12.7. I was overseas (the UK) when 12.9 came out. I used it there for several hours with no problems. I am trying to understand if this is related to High Sierra 10.13.2 upgrade or Receiver for Mac 12.8. Can you confirm that you downgraded from 12.8 to 12.7 by running the uninstaller first? Also, can you confirm that the receiver version that you used with the VM where copy-paste works was 12.8?
