Hi all, I've implemented watermarking on our Windows 365 setup using the official Microsoft guide, and I'm seeing behaviour that I'd like to confirm is expected. Current Situation: Watermarking is enabled and working (QR codes appear when I screenshot from my local client PC) However, when taking screenshots FROM WITHIN the Cloud PC session itself, no QR codes appear Similarly, when screen sharing via Teams from within the Cloud PC session, participants don't see the QR codes My Question: Is this the intended behaviour? Should QR codes only appear when capturing externally (from the client device) but not when capturing internally (from within the Windows 365 session itself)? I've read through the Microsoft documentation but can't find explicit clarification on whether internal screenshots should show watermarks or if the protection is specifically designed for external capture attempts. Can anyone confirm this behaviour or point me to official documentation that explains the internal vs external capture distinction? Thanks in advance!17Views0likes0CommentsCannot Access Windows Hardware Developer Program in Partner Center — How to Sign Drivers in 2025?
Hi all, I'm trying to sign a Windows driver and need access to the Microsoft Windows Hardware Developer Program. **What I'm trying to achieve:** - Sign a driver for Windows using the standard Microsoft hardware signing process. **The issue:** - When I try to register for the Windows Hardware Developer Program, I get a message saying "Hardware Program is already in Active state". - However, when I go to Programs > Settings in Microsoft Partner Center, the Hardware Developer Program is NOT visible/available. - I have Global Admin permissions, and I’ve also tried using an account with Owner permissions — no difference, the Hardware Program is missing from the list. **My question:** - How do I get access to the Windows Hardware Developer Program if it's "Active" but not visible in the Partner Center? - Is there any way to manage or join the Hardware Program in 2025 if it's not listed? - Is there an alternative process for signing Windows drivers now? Any up-to-date guidance for 2025 would be super helpful. Any advice or escalation contacts would be highly appreciated! Thanks in advance.236Views5likes4CommentsAAD join Server 2025
Hi, Wondering if Server 2025 can be AAD joined. this would help some businesses that have their laptops joined as well as would also like to have the option to join their Server for their line of business apps etc. Seems really strange you can have win11 AAD joined but not server 2025. Or am i just missing something here. Having to use Azure Arc comes with extra headaches and costs.Solved9.6KViews2likes15CommentsIn-place upgrade possibility planned for Windows Server 2025 Datacenter Azure Edition ?
There is currently no official ISO for Windows Server Datacenter: Azure Edition that supports setup.exe /auto upgrade for in-place upgrades. Azure Update Manager does not support OS version upgrades for Azure Edition through optional features. Is anyone aware of a supported workaround?399Views3likes4CommentsHelp us shape the future of Windows Server Previews

I have a M1 MacBook Pro that I use to connect to my Cloud PC for work via the Microsoft App. I try to use the Teams app installed locally on the Cloud PC for making and accepting calls but I am having a lot of audio issues. First of all, the person I am calling sounds very tinny (kinda like a chipmunk!) and they cannot hear me. Video doesn't seem to work properly either. I have had very little luck with my external webcam (some Logitech one, don't actually know the model but I don't think it makes a difference? but it has a microphone). There has the very odd few times that a call is working fine but then after a few seconds or so, or when I start sharing my screen on the Cloud PC after a minute of the call starting, I start to experience the same issues with audio as explained above. I am running Sequoia 15.6, the Mac Windows App is version 11.1.5 (2585). Admittedly I've mostly tried in clamshell mode and connected to external earphones (AirPods Pro). I used to use my earphones via the Citrix app on VDI with no issues previously. Any solutions would be gratefully received. Thank you50Views0likes0CommentsAdd native postfix to Windows Server
With the removal of smtp from Windows Server starting with Windows Server 2025, microsoft should add postfix to the server in a similar manner to how ssh was added to windows server.
