Questions on Intune - Autopilot
Hi Community, Our customer is looking to set up a AVD environment but they want to control how people connect to the Virtual Desktop and prevent work on local machine / saving anything locally. ...
Hi, Maybe instead of looking at the device itself, if you prevent copy-paste/ mount your local drives in the avd environment you would also be done?
Just use an autopilot windows device, make sure the user don't get admin permissions.. so you will end up with a nice clean windows 10 with only a rdp icon on the desktop.. And they could install anything on it.. Maybe restricting access to the c: drive ?
But that's my opinion 🙂

Hi Rudy,
Thank you for your response. We can add more clarity about this request:
Our customer is looking to set up a AVD environment but they want to control how people connect to the Virtual Desktop and prevent work on local machine / saving anything locally. They are aware of how to control through AVD policies (preventing copy paste etc). However they also wish to control the PC used to connect to the AVD Session.
Company laptops have been issued and configured using Autopilot, they would like to restrict these laptops to only running RDS Client so the laptop can be used for nothing else. Kiosk mode seems to be the answer but this might need to be multi App mode as AVD offloads Teams back to the client plus the client uses Smartcard readers which again is plugged into the laptop.
They'd like to know more about how Kiosk mode works from a technical prospective,
e.g. There is Single App and Multi Apps. In the above scenario they only need one app or do they?
Is the offloaded Teams element an App?
Is the Smartcard element an Apps or a Driver?
Any pointers would be of great help.
Many thanks in advance!
