MicrosoftThanks for the feedback. We found and fixed an issue late last week during the Background Effects rollout that effected a portion of the population. The fix is already rolling out and should be 100% by end of week. The fix is on the backend so there is nothing for the user to install. If you still cannot use Background Effects by end of week (5/27), do let us know. We are here to help.

Brilliant to finally have this feature in AVD. Caused a lot of issues with our user base that the feature was missing.
Also, the multi-window support is another great plus!
@Yun_Liu Is support for Background Blur on WVD media optimized session hosts on the horizon or is this not even on the roadmap?
Thanks
