Sandy25 - Yes, it's awful. It made me regret signing up to the platform at all as an M365 Business Premium tenant. Fortunately, it became clear right away that the lousy-tier machine was not going to work. Practically unusable - unless, perhaps, all you're doing is reading PDF's of children's books.. The fact that I had to start from zero rebuilding the machine again for a simple lack of a couple of gb of memory is just horrible - and it wasn't because Microsoft doesn't have the technology to do this -- if you are an enterprise client, you can do it. If you are what Microsoft obviously considers the unwashed masses on the other hand, you can just *** right off. Not the first and I'm sure not the last time I have been punished mercilessly for being a Microsoft customer (but just not a respected one).
BrentWPuebla - I am sorry to hear sir. I am also in the same boat. Can we convert the business to enterprise? So that we can avoid losing everything. Microsoft team- please help.
MicrosoftHi Mshamza,
Resizing a Cloud PC in Windows 365 Business is not currently supported, but is supported in Windows 365 Enterprise like you mentioned. Could you please share more about your use case?
For example:
Please also submit a feature request here and choose "Business" as the label: Windows 365 feature requests - Microsoft Tech Community
ivaylo_ivanov is there any movement on this? We have business customers that continually run out of disk space with no upgrade path available.
Mshamza - It's a shame that years later, this is still not possible, isn't it? I just got tricked into signing up for Windows 365 PC through Microsoft 365 business premium licensing, and now I regret it. It's the millionth time that I've felt like the poorly treated unwashed masses because I'm not that big word ENTERPRISE..
To me, it's a basic requirement. If I wanted to throw away a PC and start from scratch, I could do that the old-fashioned way and just buy PC's ..
2nikon the people complaining, including myself, are Business Premium users, not enterprise. This feature is enterprise -only and has been for much longer than a month. It's one of a nunber of features apparently intentionally engineered to punish customers for not being big enough to get the grown up version of m365.
When I first purchased MS 365 Business, I was told it was possible to upgrade my HD. I had numerous exchanges with MS Support before going ahead.
When I went ahead to try and do it, I received terrible advice that would have resulted in data loss if I had followed it.
I was told to buy a new subscription, link it to the user and delete the old subscription. I was specifically told by MS Support: "Technically you will just upgrade your subscription, nothing will happen to your files and data this is still intact".
Fortunately I did not delete my original subscription.
It now turns out that I cannot upgrade my HD size at all, unless I start from scratch with a new virtual PC. That is crazy. Who is going to compensate me for the cost of having to re-install all my third party software and all my data? I am very unhappy about this. I did check it out beforehand and asked all the right questions and was given the wrong advice by MS on numerous occassions. . Not happy at all!!!
gratefulmac Yes - they are clearly very confused about their own licensing.
