Windows App Updates: Reliability, Productivity, and Security Improvements
The Windows App has seen a significant year of investment, with updates focused on improving connection reliability, usability, and customer‑driven capabilities. In 2025 and early 2026, we delivered split screen for Web, deep linking, Start menu integration, and reliability upgrades powered by RDP multipath and next gen transport intelligence. As we approach the March 2026 end‑of‑support date for the Remote Desktop client, Windows App continues to evolve as the primary supported access experience for Windows in the cloud.
BYOD devices can't launch Windows 365 PC because of device compliance check during CA policy check.
We have a device compliance policy for all cloud apps. We would like to allow personal (BYOD) devices to be able to connect to Windows 365 Cloud PC. In the sign in logs we see the failures for application "Windows 365 Client" app id 4fb5cc57-dbbc-4cdc-9595-748adff5f414. We can't exclude that application in the conditional access policy as it's not available. We already added exclusions for Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365 and Windows Cloud Login. How can we allow BYOD devices to connect to cloud PCs?
