Remote Desktop Client AutoInstall

Hello togehter,

 

I would like to deploy the remote desktop client for Azure Virtual Desktop to our employees.
For performance reasons, we are using the .MSI (Windows Desktop) version of the client here. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/users/connect-windows?tabs=subscribe

 

The distribution is to be done via Microsoft Intune. It is important that the client should be updated automatically, without the employee needing local admin rights or IT having to constantly deploy a new version.


Unfortunately, this does not work even though I set up the deployment cleanly according to the instructions:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/users/client-features-windows#admin-management

 

I deployed the client in version 1.2.3918.0 x64.

Install command: msiexec /i "RemoteDesktop_1.2.3918.0_x64.msi" /qn ALLUSERS=2 MSIINSTALLPERUSER=1
Install behavior: User
Assignments: All Users

 

What am I doing wrong? Can someone please help me?
The installation should work automatically as described when the user closes the application.

      Unfortunately, we can not use the store app for functional and performance reasons 😞 We have already tested. So unfortunately I have to take the MSI file.
