Windows 11 Multi session search index fslogix
Hi
we have been trying to get windows 11 multi session search index working for a few weeks now without success. We are using the latest gallery image and configuring fslogix profile and office containers (not enabling search roaming)
at logon a user session shows that search index is not running. The search service itself is running in services. Attempting to view search index status as a user just shows the search index dialogue box with a message saying trying to connect or trying to get status or something along those lines.
If we then restart the search index service as an admin while the user is logged on the search then starts working for them but only for that session duration, once they logout and log back on again th e search index again says it’s turned off and has a hyperlink to turn it back on which again just shows a status of connecting but no actual search info. It’s like the service is running on the system but the user search index is failing for individual
users.
this is only an issue with the enterprise windows 11 multi session, we have no issues with windows 10 multi session and the fslogix config is exactly the same.
has anyone had this same issue and is there something special that needs to be configured for windows 11? We are also using the latest fslogix from January. Thanks

- steveturnbull1975Brass ContributorCan confirm this is now fixed in Windows 11 Multi Session - not sure exactly when the fix went in possible June, but it's working fine now in the image I built this week.
- Travis_QtechCopper ContributorI had a problem with one drive starting and stopping over and over and over again with windows 11. We went back to 10 22h2 and no issues. Just not sure what's so different about these windows 11 images.

We gave up on windows 11 for now due to the issue and sticking with windows 10 which doesn’t have the issue until MS fix it. Search index enabled of course

steveturnbull1975 I had an open ticket with MS but was not able to find a fix. Can you share the solution?
- steveturnbull1975Brass ContributorIt’s a private fix download I received from the support person. Ask them for the same fix as in support ticket 2303010040007683
- NickMarianoCopper ContributorWe have the same issue as you described! Been waiting for a fix!
- steveturnbull1975Brass ContributorHave a ticket open and had a call with MS today to gather all logs procmon etc since I can reproduce the issue 100%. First logon always works but after that it’s broken. It’s seems like not all parts of the user search data is roaming with the profile container. Restarting the search service while a user is logged in you can see the files which are missing being recreated and then search works again but only for the logged on session.
- steveturnbull1975Brass ContributorAt least I’m not the only one then! 🙂 do you have a ticket open with MS?
- steveturnbull1975Brass ContributorIs no one using windows 11 multi session right now ?
