in Getting started with FSLogix profile containers on Azure Files in Windows Virtual Desktop on 04-02-2020
@JcVirt Supposedly it has been release for Windows Insider Preview. You have to log into the server with an account that is signed up and then allow it to take all available updates from WIP. Not ideal if it is already in production.

@Joe Lurie " Regarding Win10 Pro, we make it very easy to upgrade from pro to ent editions" My understanding is this requires an EA contract or a Volume License upgrade, which is really expensive, are there other ways (outside of Embedded)?

I must be missing it then. I can't find it in any of your tf configs. Can you tell me the versions? I think you are using implicit versioning. I saw on the screen that you were using AzureRM version 2.1.0. I'm running TF 0.12.21 and seeing a lot of errors.
