RemoteApp for Word/Excel with Google Drive
I want to set up RemoteApp so users can use Word and Excel remotely. At the same time, I want them to be able to access and save files directly from Google Drive within those apps. We currently only have 3 users who need this, but we plan to expand in the future. What’s the best way to do this? Do I need a specific setup, plugin, or service to make Google Drive work seamlessly with Word/Excel in a RemoteApp environment?
Issues with FSLogix Profiles on Win11 25H2 Multiuser sessionhost's
Hey guys we have currently lot of issues with AVD and FSLogix 26.01. There seems to be an issue that the profile container isnt't unmounted correctly. We have lot's of users who are not able to login correctly because the profile can't be mounted because its already in use by another process. I'm currently looking what could cause that. We use a Azure files storage were i don't see any issues. It looks like a process within the userprofile is blocking the unload of the profile. Should i be able to see in the logs of FSLogix which process is causing this. Or what is a effective way to troubleshoot that? Thanks for any help Best regards Marc

New Windows App with AVD remote apps/desktop
Microsoft announced that Remote Desktop app would transition to Windows App so we've been testing it out and are looking for a place to offer feedback on Windows App. Have submitted Feedback via the Feedback option but no idea if others are experience similar or if certain changes are being considered, so starting this discussion to see if other AVD users have been trying the Windows App and how their experience has been? Some of the things we have observed is launching/starting a connection to a remote app or desktop is much, much slower via the Windows App vs. the Remote Desktop app. After connected, it seems to be ok, but when launching it is painfully slow most of the time. Also, we work from multiple workspaces with some users having a large number of apps assigned to them, you can no longer hover over an icon for a remote app and see which workspace the session is from. (ex: if you work on a dev, pre-prod and prod environment, you can't easily see which session is which from task bar now) Also, the size of the remote app 'icons' is huge - we would like to see an option to be able to size those down more like the sizes of the icons in Remote Desktop app. Understand you can pin to the home page, but depending on how many remote apps are assigned and used regularly it can be lots of scrolling to find what you are looking for (have to use the search option often as there isn't a sort by name option, or such) And from a security perspective, the way our conditional access rules are written, the new Windows App looks like a 365 app and we have quite strict rules for this. We are hoping to see the new Windows App change how it is identifying to allow more control/flexibility with conditional access rules for the new app. Will likely create a support ticket for this issue. Please share your experiences with the Windows App with your AVD usages.Seamless SSO According to MS Support
I am in the process of setting up a POC for AVD and followed all the instructions that I have found for enabling Seamless SSO for AVD. We are currently running in hybrid mode and I have created a server 2025 with latest patches. When I attempt to sign in via web or windows app, I signin to the web interface or the app and I am presented with the desktops. I launch a desktop and it prompts me for a user and pass (the user is pre-populated) My understanding is that this should not happen. It should seamlessly signin (This would cause issues with our users not using passwords) I contacted Microsoft support and they state that this is by design. They stated this is how it operates in their lab. Can someone clarify, if I sign into Windows app or the web, that my authentication should seamlessly sign me into the AVD server I have published? Thanks"Your credentials did not work" AVD Azure AD joined
I'm trying to test AVD Azure AD-joined only. I've met all the requirements here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/deploy-azure-ad-joined-vm. The PC I'm connecting from is running Windows 10 21H2 and is Azure AD registered to the same AAD as the AVD VM. I've enabled PKU2U on both the local PC and AVD VM, and tried it both with and without targetisaadjoined:i:1 in the host pool config. When I try to log in via the Remote Desktop Client (the MSI one, not Store), I enter my UPN prefixed by AzureAD\ as required. I always get "Your credentials did not work". The web client doesn't work either. The security log on the AVD VM shows ID 4625 - "Unknown user name or bad password." I can log in without any issues to the same AVD VM from a PC that is Azure AD-joined and using Windows Hello for Business, so I know AVD works. The only thing I'm not sure of is MFA. My account has MFA enabled, but from what I understand that should not be an issue as I'm not using the legacy per-user MFA that the article says isn't supported.
Ubuntu as session host
Hi all, I understand there is no native solution for running an ubuntu vm as a session host. I didn't find any image in the marketplace for this. I found this https://github.com/microsoft/LinuxBrokerForAVDAccess that proposes a solution. Does anyone actually uses this or any other solutions? Thanks in advance
