Office 365 on RDSH

No idea if this is the correct group or not.... I am working on deploying VDI and want Office to be part of that.    First few times (in testing) office products worked great, including Outlook.    ...

    ok, without having to sort through the foggy microsoft page and figure out what the heck they are saying, here is the FIX.

    Create a text file with an .reg extention.

    paste the following into it:

     

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\AutoDiscover]
    "ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint"=dword:00000001

     

    then on the machine in question, right click on the above file and select 'merge'.

    run outlook and it will look at your local autodiscover file.

     

    OR

     

    in gpo:

    edit or create a GPO and do the following:

    expand 'user config' / 'Preferences' / 'Windows Settings' 

    Right click on 'Registry', then 'New', then 'Registry Item'

    for 'action' select 'Create'

    for Hive, select 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER'

    key path enter in:    Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\AutoDiscover

    Value Name:   ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint

    Value Type:  REG_DWORD

    Value date:  1
