Does anyone know which license a guest user needs to be able to access a remote app on AVD on Azure Local?

Persistent vdi. Windows 11 avd. New teams installed with bootstrapper. Doesn't seem to be installing the plugin for outlook. I'm seeing a lot of problems on the web for this any suggestions?

Great tool MicrosoftDocs/mcp

I wanted to set up a host pool with session host configuration, but I'm not able to select Microsoft Entra ID for directory. Docs says it's supported, anyone been able to select this?

What would be the best way recommended to update (mostly applications) on persistent personal AVD hosts? AppAttach, 3rd party, Intune, etc?

Does anyone have definitive information on whether the screen capture protection feature works for local clients running Windows 10 in an AVD environment? According to Microsoft, it seems to be supported, but both Copilot and Perplexity suggest otherwise. The link below indicates that for RemoteApp, the feature is only supported on Windows 11, but it doesn’t specify anything about full desktop scenarios. Based on that, I’m assuming full desktop sessions on Windows 10 are supported. i can't test b/c i don't have a lab environment yet. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/screen-capture-protection?tabs=intune#prerequisites

Hi, what custom roles do you usually configure for an AVD environment? Just found those on Marcels blog and they still look pretty good: Least privileges with custom roles for Azure Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) | ITProCloud Blog

Hello all, in my session host I have the notification greyed out. I check the GPO and nothing related to block this. Look the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Notifications ToastEnabled =1. but still greyed. Do you have any clues for that ?

hello all do you know if it's possible to have the enveloppe indication on outlook new from avd ? by default i have this and when receive email i would like to have this enveloppe indication

Hi all, can someone check this in your side? I was troubleshooting some RDPShortPath Cases and i saw the following: On the client side it tells me that I'm on UDP (Relay): When i search this Session on my LAW, i can see 2 entries 1. with State "Started" 2. with State "Connected" But it tells me it's on TCP Websocket: When Disconnect and Reconnect the Session, I see an entry with "Completed" and after it again with "Started" and "Connected" but only the "Completed" Sessions tells me I'm on UDP Relay. This would be quite confusing. The client keeps telling me that I'm on UDP

does anyone know of a way to get the originating IP address in an AVD session or is the reverse nat going to pretty much hide all that?

Hi all! AVD 24H2, Hybrid Joined, SSO with Entra Credentials active, Fslogix Roam Identity disabled. Outgoing internet access (NAT GW) excluded from CA Policies for MFA. We randomly get this in Teams (need to sign in again) and in Office applications. I found this Disabling DMA SSO compliance to fix the Continue to Sign in but should you really need to do this?

Hi all! Is there a way to configure auto-launch of an AVD published App or Desktop when using the Windows App? With Remote Deskop app, you were able to take the shortcuts from Start Menu and put them into shell:startup but the Windows App does not create any shortcuts. The only way I found would be to create a direct launch URL but that only seems to work with HTML5 client and not the full client.

I’m gathering insights on this topic: What’s stopping you from using a smartphone as your primary VDI client? I mean fully replacing your desk device and connecting wirelessly to a mouse, keyboard, and monitor (I know many of you don’t yet have AirPlay or Miracast available). I’m especially interested in hearing about the weak points in the current experience — areas that need improvement, features that should be enhanced, or pain points that make this setup impractical today.

Screen size, typing speed, Microsoft Apps which with VDI are not made for touch screens. In a pinch you can do it but you are not putting in hours. Now a phone docked that Samsung DEX tried maybe but the phone integrations for phone things would need to be there. Its fun but not practical for normal office workers from what I have seen and even with Doctors who wanted it since 2008 still just use it a bit but then on a iPad is another story and works for them perfectly depending on their VDI more than the formfactor.

Hey everyone, as Microsoft is retiring default outbound Internet access for new Azure VMs after Sept 30, 2025 (see https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/?id=default-outbound-access-for-vms-in-azure-will-be-retired-updates-and-more-information ). we are looking for the best solution to solve that. I know the official options ( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/default-outbound-access ) → NAT Gateway, Standard Load Balancer with outbound rules, or Public IP. Public IP is not an option for us. What’s the simplest and most cost-effective approach you guys are using? NAT Gateway or LB outbound rules? And why? Thanks!

Anyone else seeing this error when deploying new session hosts with session host configuration?

So got a customer here with an AVD environment with no Nerdio or Hydra or anything - if they've got a scaling plan turned on, how do those machines get provisioned? bear in mind I'm a total AVD noob

Hello, I have a request to build a AVD environment, with Multiuser-Session hosts OS (W11). But Cloud only. No on-prem AD DS. But the customer has Entra Domain Services. My idea is to use Entra Domain Services to configure the Session hosts with traditional GPOs. Is this a good idea? Intune is not an option i am afraid. Another question is, how to do it? During deployment what to select to Join to: Entra ID or Active Directory? As I understood there is a one way sync from Entra ID to Entra Doman Services. If I would choose Active Directory join, and use the credentials of Entra Domain Services, then the Session host would be only Entra Domain Service joined? If I choose Entra ID, then it would join to Entra ID and be Synced to Entra Domain Services? What is the correct way?

Trying to get my feet wet with AVD (pure, no Nerdio or Hydra) and trying to transfer my Citrix MCS and MDT/Packer knowledge over. I'm already racking my brains over the second dialogue: (see screenshot) I've chosen several VM sizes, and I can't seem to find a size that let's me experiment with Ephemeral disks. Microsoft suggests two sizes, but afaik they are all outdated. (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/deploy/session-hosts/ephemeral-os-disks?tabs=portal#size-requirements) What do I need to do to find out which VM sizes are compatible with this feature? I tested Daldsv6 for example (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/sizes/general-purpose/daldsv6-series?tabs=sizestoragelocal) which has Standard_D4alds_v6 220GB Temp Storage. A Marketplace Image has 127GB. Doesn't work out. I don't understand the logic here. Or is this, because Session Host Configuration and Ephemeral combined are in Preview?
