    Mark Aldridge   Hi Mark,  I'm seeing the same issue occur every now and then. It's caused by the Windows Search service. If you restart this service the issue stops (you don't need to restart the host and you can restart the service with everyone else logged on).

     

    I've had to created a scheduled task to restart this service at logon.  Far from ideal though. I assume it's yet another bug in Win10 2004... 

     

    On top of a major bug in FSLogix (which breaks OneDrive Files on-Demand) I'm getting pretty fed up with Microsoft right now.

This turns out to be a known issue (internal tracking number is 21167387) and fixed in future builds of Windows. I will start our backport process as soon as possible to make sure we service current in-market versions of Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session. 

Thanks,

Pieter

Hi Pieter,

 

Do you got any update regarding this issue? Just saw the same behaviour with the Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session, Version 2004 + Microsoft 365 Apps image from the gallery.

 

This is not acceptable for any production environment at the moment!

 

With kind regards,
