Snapdragon X Elite (Arm) Build of Windows Server 2025
Hello I can't seem to find where to download the evaluation build for Windows Server (ideally the more regularly updated Azure Edition) but all I seem to be able to find is x64. There seem to have been builds out there for months from screenshots but I'm not sure where people are getting them from. It seems build 26100.1742 would be the best one at least to start with before I switch to being overly canarified.
Bulk Start/Stop of Azure Virtual Desktop Session Hosts in a Host Pool via Single Trigger
Hi Community, We manage an Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) host pool with a large number of session hosts (e.g., around 100), and we’re looking for a way to start or stop all session hosts in bulk using a single trigger—preferably via PowerShell or an API. Currently, we use a scheduled script that loops through each VM individually to start or stop them, but this approach doesn't scale well. We’ve noticed that the Azure Portal provides a one-click option to start or stop all session hosts in a host pool, and we’re trying to replicate that behavior programmatically. What We’re Looking For: A PowerShell command or script that can start/stop all session hosts in a host pool without iterating through each VM. If PowerShell doesn’t support this directly, is there an ARM template, Azure CLI command, REST API, or any other method that can be triggered from PowerShell to perform this bulk action? Any official documentation, community guidance, or examples from someone who has achieved this would be greatly appreciated. Goal: To simplify and optimize our automation by using a single command or API call to manage all session hosts in a host pool, rather than looping through each machine individually. Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!Windows Server on ARM (Insider Previews) availability
Last year it appears around 3 preview versions of Windows Server on ARM architecture were released to the insider community - possibly one may have been bundled inside a Windows 10 Insider download. Does anyone retain a copy of those ISOs and would you be willing to share for testing purposes? And what is the current status of this project?Microsoft Surface adds another layer to Microsoft’s AI story
AI is at the forefront of technology conversations—what it is, what it does, what it has the potential to do. Almost all these discussions pertain to the cloud or online experiences where AI helps power search, social media, and apps like ChatGPT. What many might not realize is that AI runs on devices too.
How to publish a .Net application to the Windows Store targeting ARM?
Reproduce like this: Create a WPF application targeting .Net 6.0 . Add a packaging project, add the WPF application as its "Applications", and associate with an app in the Store. Try publishing targeting ARM in both. This is the exception I get: "The specified RuntimeIdentifier 'win-arm32' is not recognized."Proxy Settings when using OMS Agent VM Extension via ARM template
Hi all I'm adding the Monitoring Agent using a VM extension in an ARM template, using the following code. My question is whether it's possible to specify authentication details in the template code so that the agent can authenticate to the proxy server. Is this possible? "properties": { "publisher": "Microsoft.EnterpriseCloud.Monitoring", "type": "MicrosoftMonitoringAgent", "typeHandlerVersion": "1.0", "autoUpgradeMinorVersion": true, "settings": { "workspaceId": "[parameters('omsworkspaceid')]", "proxyUri": "proxy:8080" },AVD Domain Join Errors
Just curious of other people are seeing errors during domain join when creating a new AVD pool in ARM, but when the VM's are checked they were successfully joined. I have seen this several times in the last three months. What it looks like to me is that the template in the ARM tries to perform the join while the new VMs are coming out of Sysprep, throws the error message, then later successfully joins the VMs. The one time I did get into a VM that had this error, I was able from within the VM using a Bastion connection, join the computer to the domain using the same service account credentials I had specified in the ARM.
