Hello Vaibhav,
not sure what you need to accomplish if below information is not sufficient please elaborate a bit and describe your requirements.
The Web-to-Host product comes with two technologies.
a. ActiveX Controls
b. Java Applets
You can a reference the ActiveX Control (for example the Mainframe Display Control) in Visual Studio .NET
Start Visual Studio .NET and create either a new Visual Basic .NET Windows application or a Visual C# Windows application. The remaining steps apply to either language.
Select Tools, Customize Toolbox... from the menu, or right-click inside the Toolbox window and select Customize Toolbox... from the context menu. There are two kinds of controls that can be referenced: COM Components and .NET Framework Components. The default COM Components tab shows a list of all the registered ActiveX controls on the computer.
Please note:
With the the withdrawal of support for Internet Explorer 11 and ActiveX, together with the restriction of Java applets by modern browsers,we added a web launcher feature in Web-to-Host 6.9.2
The Host Access Web Launcher provides alternate means of running host sessions. As well as Internet Explorer 11, the Host Access Web Launcher provides the new ability of running the
same host sessions using Chrome, Edge, or Firefox. When you start a Web-to-Host session from a supported browser, the Web Launcher starts and opens the the Web-to-Host session itself.

That's correct for the Web-to-Host product version 6.9.2.
Web-to-Host detects the Browser , if you use Chrome, Edge, or Firefox it will use the launcher to run the session. With IE11 Web-to-Host will start in the browser context because IE11 still supports Java Applets and ActiveX controls.
Reflection ZFE is a different product.
With ZFE we deliver a Java-free solution. It's a HTML5-based emulation with a true zero-footprint client.

This is the wrong forum to address Reflection ZFE issues.
Please re-post your question into the Reflection ZFE forum.
Review your container.log file under MSS\\server\\logs and check if the mss service is running correctly.
The Host Access Management and Security Server (MSS) provides the Administrative Console, a web-based centralized location where you can add, edit, and delete terminal sessions.

I send you a DM to take the discussion offline the forum.
No Desktop Solution eliminates RUMBA.
With Web-to-Host you could use the provided Java Applets, but to mitigate the Oracle Java changes i would go with Reflection ZFE.
Reflection ZFE provides everything you mentioned so far. We also provide an easy way to embed the Web Client into your own page and pass & retrieve parameters.
