This release can be installed over all existing versions of FSLogix or you can perform a fresh install without a pre-existing FSLogix version.
Here's what's new in this release:
- Fixed issue where the FSLogix Profile Service would crash if it was unable to communicate with the FSLogix Cloud Cache Service.
- The OfficeFileCache folder located at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Office\16.0\OfficeFileCache is now machine specific and encrypted so we now exclude it from FSLogix containers. Office files located outside this folder are not impacted by this update.
- Windows Server 2019 version 1809, and newer versions of Windows Server, natively support per-user search indexes and we recommend you leverage that native search index capability. FSLogix Search Indexing is no longer available on those versions of Windows Server.
- Windows 10 Enterprise Multi-session and Windows 11 Enterprise Multi-session natively support per-user search indexes and FSLogix Search Indexing is no longer available on those operating systems.
- FSLogix now correctly handles cases where the Windows Profile Service refCount registry value is set to an unexpected value.
- Over 30 accessibility related updates have been made to the FSLogix installer and App Rules Editor.
- A Windows event now records when a machine locks a container disk with a message that looks like "This machine '[HOSTNAME]' is using [USERNAME]'s (SID=[USER SID]) profile disk. VHD(x): [FILENAME]."
- Resolved an issue where the DeleteLocalProfileWhenVHDShouldApply registry setting was sometimes ignored.
- Fixed an issue where active user session settings where not retained if the FSLogix service was restarted. This was causing some logoffs to fail.
- FSLogix will no longer attempt to reattach a container disk when the user session is locked.
- Fixed an issue that caused the FSLogix service to crash when reattaching container disks.
- Fixed a Cloud Cache issue that caused IO failures if the session host's storage blocksize was smaller than a cloud provider's. For optimal performance, we recommend the session host disk hosting the CCD proxy directory has a physical block size greater than or equal to the CCD storage provider with the largest blocksize size.
- Fixed a Cloud Cache issue where a timed out read request (network outage, storage outage, etc.) was not handled properly and would eventually fail.
- Reduced the chance for a Cloud Cache container disk corruption if a provider is experiencing connection issues.
- Resolved an issue where temporary rule files were not deleted if rule compilation failed.
- Previously, the Application masking folder was only created for the user who ran the installer. With this update, the rules folder is created when the Rules editor is launched.
- Resolved an interoperability issue with large OneDrive file downloads that was causing some operations to fail.
- Fixed an issue where per-user and per-group settings did not apply if the Profile or ODFC container was not enabled for all users.
- Resolved an issue where the Office container session configuration was not cleaned up if a profile fails to load.
- Fixed an issue where HKCU App Masking rules leveraging wildcards would fail to apply.
- Fixed an issue where FSLogix did not properly handle logoff events if Profile or ODFC containers were disabled during the session or per-user/per-group filters were applied mid-session that excluded the user from the feature. Now FSLogix logoff related events will always occur if FSLogix loaded a container for the user.
- Fixed an issue that caused some sessions configured with an ODFC container to fail to login.
- Resolved an issue where the rule editor would crash if there were no assignments configured.

Hi All!,
Just got a call from Microsoft that the OneDive files on demand error has been resolved.
Please make sure to install the latest OneDrive version: Version 2022 (Build 22.089.0426.0003) (64-bit)
Thanks and have a good day everyone! Hi SteveDMSFT
we recommend the session host disk hosting the CCD proxy directory has a physical block size greater than or equal to the CCD storage provider with the largest blocksize size.
Does this belong to the block size of NTFS or ReFS volumes where Profile or Office Containers are saved to?
What are the recommendations on this block size?

What's new? You fixed a critical problem with RefCount. We are waiting for the same with local_folders. Why is it taking so long?SteveDMSFT

vara93 We were finally able to troubleshoot this issue thanks to customers opening tickets and providing logs. We believe the issue is related to third-party software and are working with them to investigate.

SteveDMSFT is there an update on the local_ folders?
- vara93Iron ContributorWhen a user logs out, the Local_ folder remains.
In the logs I see:
Error removing directory: C:\Users\local_Makeev\AppData\Local\Microsoft (The folder is not empty.)
Event ID 26.- kesslersebCopper Contributor
We often have the same problem. I am currently testing the delproof tool with a daily reboot.
- theBwunCopper ContributorHi -
Have filled out the form 4 times since Thursday.
Need to Get my hands on this to test - We are crippled with "The Group Policy Serviced failed the login" on Windows 10 Enterprise Multi Session.
AVD Deploymet is less than three months old, users completely rejecting it due to this Issue.
We are not seeing stuck or locked folders, but Ref Count is being set to unexepected Value (By Something) and Resetting it to 00 00 00 in regedit allows the user to log in.
What specifically is this public preview doing in regards to this point:
FSLogix now correctly handles cases where the Windows Profile Service refCount registry value is set to an unexpected value.
Is FSlogix no longer caring if the value is no 00 00 00 and allowing access?
The form states I will receive a link via email within 24 hours and I have filled out the form 4 times since Thursday... Still no link.
Azure Support are reluctant to provide the file to me and say I need to sign a legal waiver.
How do I get the public preview update 1 to test my ref count woes?
Please advise,
B. - vara93Iron ContributorMany users encounter a black screen when logging in. The only thing that helps is restarting the appreadiness service
What to do ?
Give at least some updated information. It takes you a very long time to fix critical problems !!!- SteveDMSFT

Thanks for your feedback. Have you opened a support ticket? That will help us collect logs and analyze the issue.- vara93Iron ContributorWhy don't you know about this problem, but your developer does? https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/fslogix-blog/fslogix-2105-hf-01-2-9-7979-62170-released/bc-p/3072007/highlight/true#M98
Can you work together ?
Steve Downs, your product has a lot of problems. That's a fact. You've been fixing critical problems for over a year now.
What's the problem?
I asked if there was any news, any progress in fixing the problems now ? You are ignoring.
Do you have developers who can take care of your product ? I don't want to wait another year.
I am also interested in another problem, why haven't you fixed the local_%username% folder freeze after logout?
I really hope you will answer me. FSLogix is the best solution, but I don't understand how you can spend years fixing critical problems. Do you think this is normal ?
- vara93Iron ContributorDoes anyone know how to properly configure Windows Server 2019 search service + FSlogix ?
- vara93Iron Contributor
- vara93Iron ContributorAlso in this version, many users have a black screen for 5 minutes, then the desktop loads.
Very very unstable version. 500 users.
- vara93Iron ContributorTell me more about the new Profile_nick.VHDX.metadata file in the profile folder.
- MP-ReneCopper ContributorGentlemen, we have this issue with multiple customers, even after applying the known logoff and change to zero.
We have opted for the fix multiple times, but we still dont have a download link.
Can someone send me this version?
