Hi frank-72,

 

Hi,

According to the following Doc, clipboard is supported on web client:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-app-compare#other-redirection-devices-etc

 

It might be that clipboard redirection is disabled in the RDP properties under the Host Pool?
Azure Virtual Desktop > Host Pools > <HOSTPOOL> > RDP Properties > Device redirection > Clipboard Redirection.

 

Another thing is that the web client ask for access local resources on connection, this might ben disabled there and set to not ask again.

 

another thing i can think of is the Chrome site permission setting, please make sure that Clipboard is not blocked in here: chrome://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Frdweb.wvd.microsoft.com

 

hope this helps.

Hi,

 

sorry but nothing worked for me.

 

I cant access the host pool (no rights) and i have tried to change the browsers settings. 

 

In the Screenshot, i do not have the option for File Transfer and Printer. 

So i assume it is related to the server settingss.

I try to contact them, but it seems that they do not care about Linux users....

 

Thanks for yout help!

 

frank
