Welcome to this month's Windows 365 AMA! We're about to get started so post your questions here in the Comments! Topic of the day? Windows 365 Boot! (But you can ask us other things too.)
- jweertsCasual ReaderMy ideal scenario would be to enable employees to use W365 Boot from their home device, for example if they are sick or would like to catch up on work in the evening. We definitely cannot ask them to convert their home PC to a W365 only device, so are there plans to: 1. Allow W365 Boot on Windows Home devices, possibly if their work account is licensed W365 or Windows Enterprise? 2. Allow users to switch from W365 Boot to "regular" boot? I believe W365 Switch will cover a lot of this use case, but some organizations will take issue with their employees being able to access the Cloud PC and their personal device at the same time.

- JS-BTSBrass ContributorI'm extremely interested in Windows 365 Boot as a concept as someone working for an MSP, and really enjoyed the previous video showing us how to use this. - thank you for doing this. I do have to ask, how are Applications handled when deploying to this? Can these be deployed to the Windows 365 Cloud Computers using Intune as if it were a physical device, and are there limitations on this?

- NigelIron ContributorDo we know if Win365 boot will be coming to AVD? I am a partner and provide managed AVD services to many clients. There definitely is a need for an Intune based 'thin client' replacement for large labs / classrooms for example.

- TheAutisticTechieBrass ContributorI want to use Windows 365 as a privileged admin workstation which would be accessed from my AAD Joined standard account connecting to my W365 PAW admin user. Is this use case supported?
