Windows 11 MultiSession 23h2 User Photo Bug
If a user changes their icon in the start menu, the profile picture is changed to the same for all users who are logged in to the same Windows 11 multi session + FSLogix session host. Fortunately, this doesn't happen in Teams / Outlook! This is a bug with MultiSession + Fslogix. Does anyone have any news on whether MS will fix the bug? Other guys have the same issue https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/idea/azurevirtualdesktop/bug-with-profile-picture-on-avd--windows-11-multi-user/4180592
Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) drag and drop files
In some situations, it is handy to drag and drop files from a local endpoint to for example AVD remote app. For example when using Outlook on the local endpoint and wanting to archive attachments in the ERP application (legacy app) hosted in a remote app. Copy and paste works but is not user-friendly in this situation.
Change AVD Insights Workbooks to use VM Insights Queries
Currently the AVD Insights workbooks rely on the Microsoft Monitoring Agent which is being retired. Please release an AVD Insights solution that works with and utilises the VM Insights capabilities of Azure Monitor. This will allow us to decommission the use of the MMA.Scalability Tool improvements - embed in management portal + auto provision VM's
Currently the scalability tool is not satisfying in large environment. The tool only starts/stops VM's based on load. This still means we have to provision VM's ourselves. Please provide enhancements to the scalability tool to auto-provision VM's which will save a huge amount of time for the AVD sysadmin. Perhaps these scalability options can be embedded in the AVD management portal as well.
Frequent AVD Deployment Failures
Since June 2024, we have experienced occasional failures in AVD deployments. While most deployments succeed through adding session hosts to the host pool, there are instances where the deployment fails. Given this situation, we would like to request a change in behavior to reduce the burden of recreating AVDs when deployment fails.Update 'Update-AzWvdSessionHost' cmdlet
Today via the PowerShell cmdlet 'Update-AzWvdSessionHost', an administrator can assign a user to a session host without the user being assigned to the applicationgroup. This can cause some confusion to administrators if they are able to perform this task as the user will not be able to see the host in the Windows App. The suggestion would be to either put in a check which denies the assignment if the user is not associated with the applicationgroup directly or indirectly via group association. Or, update the cmdlet to also add an assignment to the application group by adding a required parameter which would assign the user to the application group. It's a small tweak but it may help with the overall stability of the Desktop.Virtualization PowerShell stack. Thanks!
Fslogix. Add a command line to release the profile.
Hello. Add a command line with arguments to be able to release frozen folders in FSlogix. If you don't want to fix the problem, let me automate it myself. In large RDS installations, constant freezes and further duplication of local_%username% folders cause problems.Bug with profile picture on AVD / Windows 11 Multi-User
My organization has seen multiple occurrences where a different user's profile picture/icon is shown besides their own. This has been seen in the OS under Start (lower left corner) as well as in Settings -> Accounts. No issues have been seen with Teams or Outlook only the profile picture shown within the OS. Have not seen anything similar with our on-premise Citrix machines. Not a high priority issue obviously but would like to raise awareness. If anyone has ideas, please let me know what information I can gather to start troubleshooting! Thank you.
