Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Can you specify your issue in detail, as what you want to know exactly?
From your description it seems that you want to use RD Web access on other browser. S first see that you must have ActiveX enabled on your browser. But as ActiveX only supported by IE as Microsoft product you need to see that you have capable plug-ins (Supported as ActiveX) to run RD Web.
You can check below article.

Hope it helps!

Hi,
You may use RD Web Access 2012/2012 R2 from non-IE browsers, however, you will not have support for Web SSO, and it is not as clean an experience (as it is from IE with the Activex enabled) when launching RemoteApps since the user needs to say they want to open the .rdp file.
