Webclient offline download fails
I'm following the instructions here to download the webclient to install on a server without internet https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/remote-desktop-web-client-admin#how-to-install-the-remote-desktop-web-client-without-an-internet-connection and getting an error when running Save-RdWebClientPackage "MethodInvocationException: Exception calling "DownloadFile" with "2" argument(s): "An exception occurred during a WebClient request.""RDWebClient printing twice
Hi everyone, I just installed RDWebClient on a Windows Server 2025 Broker/gateway Everything is working just fine, except the printing. When I click "Print" on any software (paint or Word or even a file from the explorer.exe), it downloads two files, the first is empty (0kb) and the second is the real file. From the console logs, I get two blob jobs, and on my host server I only see one print job. So the RDWebClient seems to trigger two printing jobs, but can't seem to find why. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Keewi.
Shutdown notification webhook unable to access token
I am trying to implement the AVD-Shutdown notification webhook from fortytwoservices on GitHub (https://github.com/fortytwoservices/AVD-Shutdown). It is getting an error getting the access token. The invocation log is: I am assuming it is referring to accessing the Exchange Online mailbox that I am sending the mail through. The webhook is using MS Graph API to send the e-mail. I have set up a system assigned managed identity in the portal for the function app. Using the values in Entra for the application, I set it up in exchange as follows: Any wisdom would be appreciated.

We couldn't connect because there are currently no available resources
Hi everyone, My English isn’t perfect. I need some assistance with an issue I'm facing when trying to connect to my Azure Virtual Desktop using SessionDesktop. I’ve set up two host pools: One for RemoteApps (which is working fine, and where the session host is currently located) Another for Desktop access, which initially worked but has now started giving me the following error: "We couldn't connect because there are currently no available resources. Try again later or contact tech support for help if this keeps happening." Has anyone encountered this issue before or know how to fix it? Thanks in advance for any help
AVD Single Session - Password is incorrect - lockout screen
Hi Guys, I hope you are all well. Recently I set up these policies for my AVD env: Set time limit for active but idle Remote Desktop Services sessions - Disabled Set time limit for active Remote Desktop Services sessions - Disabled Disconnect remote session on lock for legacy authentication - Disabled Disconnect remote session on lock for Microsoft identity platform authentication - Disabled The result is that the after some idle time session is not completely disconnected but AVD is being locking out, and that is good but - from lock screen I can't log-in again - I received info that the password is incorrect. In event viewer I see: Event ID 4673. From that place I can disconnect session, restart machine or add additional keyboard layout -> after I click "Update" I am being moved to Desktop, but still poor solution. Password is definitely correct, account is not being locked out/disabled. All machines are Entra ID Joined. Any ideas? Best regards, DamianAVD Single Session - Password is incorrect - lockout screen

Windows App, pasting files hangs OS
Hi all, We’re experiencing an intermittent but frustrating issue when using the Windows App to connect to our Azure Virtual Desktop environment. Issue: When users attempt to copy and paste certain files from their local machine to the remote session, the operating system on the remote side hangs. The mouse still moves, and the clock continues to tick, but: -Start menu becomes unresponsive -Taskbar icons stop registering clicks -Desktop icons are frozen -No error messages appear This occurs sporadically and seems to affect files of varying sizes and types — 100KB up to 20MB. What we've tried: -Updating the Windows App to the latest version -Verifying clipboard redirection is enabled -Using MSTSC, and the Remote Desktop Store App. These work but don't support Session Pools, Remote -Apps, or SSO. -Using RemoteDesktop_1.2.6228.0 (MSI Install) Has the same issue as Windows App Environment: -Remote app hosted in Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) -Users connecting from Windows 10/11 clients -Windows App version: 2.0.419.0, 2.0.420.0, and 2.0.500.0 All ideas welcome - is a major disruption to our business processes.
MultiMonitor Support for AVD Webclient
Hello, We have users using HP ThinPRO to connect to AVD. They normally use AVD client but that seems having latency. However user confirmed once they use AVD Webclient via browser https://client.wvd.microsoft.com/arm/webclient/ its working pretty fine. There is only one challenge as they can use more than one monitor. Is there any option to use more than one monitor with AVD webclient? Thanks Pankaj
Latest Remote Desktop client not starting on W10 LTSB 1607
Hello. We're using about 50 thin-clients to connect to our AVD systems. The HP t530 thin-clients are running Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB / ver 1607 / build 14393 / RS1 and have the Remote Desktop client for Windows (msi) installed, with auto update enabled. This all worked fine until the most recent releases of the Remote Desktop client. Starting with version 1.2.6186 the app simply doesn't start anymore. There's no gui, no errors, nothing. Just for a few seconds the spinning blue circle next to the cursor. It does create msrdcw_xxx.etl files in %temp%\DiagOutputDir\RdClientAutoTrace, however i couldn't locate any obvious errors in it. Upgrading to 1.2.6187 does fixes the problem temporary (but that's probably because it's actually based on the older 1.2.6081 version). Upgrading to the latest releases 1.2.6188, 1.2.6227 and 1.2.6228 reintroduces the problem. It's not something in the thin-client image, also did a fresh Win10 1607 install with latest Windows Updates, same problem. Is there anything i can do or try, except blocking all future updates and staying on 1.2.6187?AVD Configuring with O365
I am in the process of setting up Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) infrastructure for our 10 users located across South India. While most configurations are in place, I am currently encountering a few issues that need your attention: Access Issue on Laptops: I am able to successfully access AVD from mobile devices. However, when attempting to log in from a laptop, I am facing an issue. I’ve attached a screenshot for your reference. Team Error on Windows 11 with O365 Image: I have deployed the Windows 11 image with Microsoft 365 Apps. Unfortunately, when trying to access Microsoft Teams, I receive an error. Further assistance on this would be appreciated. User ID Customization: I’d like to create user IDs that are simple and easy for our users to remember. Could you guide me on where and how to configure or rename the user IDs? My test user id is email address removed for privacy reasons
