Windows Server 2022 App Compatibility FOD breaks Remote Desktop
When installing the App Compatibility FOD on Windows Server 2022, Remote Desktop connections to the server seem to be no longer possible. I think this is a bug, but haven't found any other reports. Can someone confirm? How to reproduce: Install Windows Server 2022 Standard Core (physical and virtual installs are equally affected). In SConfig, enable Remote Desktop. Connect to the server via Remote Desktop using the default 'Administrator' account. Works fine. Install the App Compatibility FOD and reboot: Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name ServerCore.AppCompatibility~~~~0.0.1.0 Restart-Computer Try establishing a Remote Desktop connection again. Doesn't work. You either get a blank screen or get disconnected immediately. Install all applicable Windows Updates and try again. No change. Remove the App Compatibility FOD and reboot: Remove-WindowsCapability -Online -Name ServerCore.AppCompatibility~~~~0.0.1.0 Restart-Computer Try again. Remote Desktop functionality is now restored. This did work fine in Server 2019.

Windows Server 2022 Preview Bug Discovered
Hi, I am running Windows Server 2022 Preview Standard and have discovered a bug. I'm not really sure where to report it, so I'll report it here. Currently running Build 20348.75. If you run secpol.msc, and change Network List Manager Policies/Network/Network Location and change the server to Location Type - Private, when you reboot, the server is unresponsive in terms of for example clicking control panel/Windows Defender. Cant launch Edge etc.....something fundamentally wrong. Thankfully I have a snapshot to rollback to, but this is a pretty big issue for my servers that are not domain joined, but are in fact on a private network, not a public one.
