A couple of questions from me:
- If a user's session is disconnected, and then they re-connect, is the session state resumed? EG, if files are open, they'll be re-opened upon re-connect?
- I've noticed in the guide we followed before, it recommended the Dev-Channel for Insider Builds, but you mentioned the Beta. Is there a reason for this?

If a user
- Locks the local Windows PC, then the user is disconnected from cloud PC but the app states on the Cloud are maintained and the user session is resumed when the user signs in
- Signs out from the local Windows PC, then the user is signed out from the cloud PC as well.. This means that the Cloud PC is disconnected and the apps are all closed. It will be a new session when the user logs in again.
I hope I have answered your query. Feel free to ask more 🙂
- JS-BTSJun 07, 2023Brass ContributorMakes sense that Logging out causes everything to be closed (as if it were shut down), but a disconnection does not close the state and allows it to be resumed. Thank you, your explanation is very helpful.

Yes, the session state will be resumed. Everything you had open in the Cloud PC remains to be open. So no productivity liss. Both channels work. We recommend Beta for the most stable release. When GA, we will be available in the production build.
