Event details
I just wanted confirmation that no Windows 365 clients will be able to use video or screen sharing in Teams after January 2024. This will have a large impact on our users.
Message Center alert MC674419 ยท Published Sep 8, 2023, states that Windows 365
Impact to users:
Users will no longer be able to use video or screensharing when they are using Microsoft Teams optimized for VDI when this change is implemented.

Dawn M Wertz , MarkP , Rich_Olson - I'll need to follow-up with the team on this to get more details. I'll respond back when I have more information. Thanks!

Dawn M Wertz , MarkP , Rich_Olson - I got some more clarity here.
The actual impact is that the Single Window calls in VDI is being deprecated and that's why those features won't be supported.
The action item / follow-up in that Message Center post is correct in that you should update the Teams client and the WebRTCRedirector service on the VMs to the latest supported versions. By default, these will use Multi Window calls in VDI, and you can continue using the video and screensharing capabilities.
- Thank you for the clarification.
- How do we know if this will affect us? Is there a difference between Windows 365 and Microsoft 365 users? I am confused on who this will affect?
- Can you link to this? I have been unable to find it in message center (or Google).
