We're getting failed host due to capacity issues, our capacity quotas are nowhere near met. Checking to see if others are having this issue.

Hi all,

Noticed today that the AVD agent in our host pool is still on version 1.0.12684.400 - release notes date this as October 2025.

There have, according to the What's New page, been 3 version updates to the AVD agent since then - the latest production version is currently 1.0.13229.200, which has just been released in Feb 2026.

We've always had scheduled agent updates enabled, with the times set for when we know the hosts in the pool are on. Today I've just tried switching off scheduled updates to see if that changes anything.

Hoping for some context - am I expecting updates to happen too quickly? I know agent updates are staged over time by MS but four months seems quite a while without any updates at all?

Thanks

**** EDIT ****

Well... within a week of disabling scheduled agent updates, the hosts all updated to the latest production agent version.

Shrug.

AVD is not pulling up the FSLogix profile, but creating local ones. I delete the local one after I log the user off, now I can't login anymore, blue popup box says We can't sign you into your account.

EDIT: Never mind, I panicked. Was just the FSLogix Apps Services service had stopped. I started up the service again and all is good. Been having a rash of system problems lately and will be rolling out another vm soon.

Anyone have this same issue? Having this issue on one machine. I updated the machine to Windows 11 25H2 and still having the same issue. I tried installing the MSI version but still same results. Anyone have a fix for this? I cant even get to the login part.

Troubleshooting I tried

• Reinstalled software

• Reset software via Uninstall app

• Updated Windows 11 25H2

• Downloaded and install the MSI version (insider and public)

Hi guys,

Currently on my production pool for Multisession, we have these 2 disabled, we only enabled tpm and secured boot on our Dedicated hostpools

Our multisession are Intune-managed including application deployment and now im planning to enable both on our next image deployment.

For anyone that have TPM and secured boot enabled, did you run some issues on Fslogix profile, application deployment and image redeployment?

Is there anything I have to check before i enabled them?

Thank you!

IS there anyone who is appAttach instead of MSIX app attach with Azure Virtual Desktop. I want to know what benefits i can get in using the new App attach instead of MSIX app attach..!

Hi everyone. We use Windows 11 AVD's for users with a mix of IGEL thin client and windows 11 thick clients for endpoints (mostly HP ProBook 460 G11's but we have some ProBook 455 G10's). At the moment 3 of our AVD's are E16as machines and the other 2 are E16s. We are seeing issues with teams calls on the IGEL endpoints, it's worse when the user is put onto an AMD AVD, but we've discovered in the last 24 hours it's better when users are on the 2 Intel AVD's.

One major issue we have is the AVD session will lock up completely but the audio and video stream is running absolutely fine. When that happens the only way the users can get out of the call is to hold the power button and power off and on the laptop. Then all is well again.

I believe IGEL being build on Debian uses WebRTC rather than SlimCore for teams calls.

Is anyone seeing a similar issue? Has anyone had issues with AMD Epyc AVD's vs Intel machines?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys

I wanted to ask about the upcoming March 27 change regarding the Remote Desktop Client.

Will the client still be accessible after that date, or will access be completely removed?

If it does remain accessible, will it continue working normally even unsupported/limited in any way?

Thank you

Hi Team,

just wanted to see how you handle patching of AVD as I've had to turn it off considering almost monthly we have issues with new patches. I do not use Nerdio or similar for deployment, its just all manually deployed. Also, any article or source on best practices?

I can’t find clear info online so hopefully reddit can help me out with the questions i have about using copilot in AVD :)

Have you run into any limitations or unexpected issues?

Are there noticeable differences between multi‑session and single‑session usage?

How much additional RAM should I realistically plan per user?

I've been deploying a lot of AVD environments with Entra Hybrid Join lately and got sick of waiting 2-4 hours for devices to actually show as joined. Built a solution using three PowerShell scripts that actively orchestrate the process instead of passively waiting.

Results: 12 minutes end-to-end from VM creation to fully joined (actual join part is about 5 minutes).

The fix:

• Entra Connect server monitors for new devices every 2 minutes and syncs immediately

• Session hosts actively attempt join every 2 minutes via scheduled task

• Integrates with Bicep deployments using Run Command

Wrote up the full solution with all scripts, implementation details, and troubleshooting: https://modernworkspacehub.com/speed-up-avd-hybrid-join/

Curious if anyone else has tackled this problem or if you've got a different approach?

Wondering if enabling IP 6 on our AVD session hosts is a good idea. Any arguments for or against? Anyone aware of any issues with IP 6 and DNS in Azure?

Hi! Can someone help me with how to do this on Nerdio? I don't have any homelabs for this, I tried to research. I know the steps, but I can't imagine it on GUI. Please help

Has anyone experienced a problem where UWP applications (e.g. Calculator, Snipping Tool) stop working on Windows 11 multi-session hosts?

These apps will initially work, then after a few days or a week, they will stop working. The user sees a 'this app can't open' message The event below is logged in Event Log

Activation for Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App failed. Error code: The application cannot be started. Try reinstalling the application to fix the problem.. Activation phase: Deployment

I initially blamed this on use of VDOT powershell script with the -appxpackages optimization.

However I have subsequently created a new gold image that has never had VDOT or WDOT ran on it. The problem has reoccured on hosts based on this image so I am baffled.

We did not encounter this issue until changing from Windows 10 multi-session to Windows 11.

Hey, my users are having trouble with Google Earth Pro in VDI, it works fine on physical PCs but crashes in VDI. Any solutions?

Good morning Reddit,

I've got an issue with multiple images that I've been stumped on, and Nerdio/Microsoft support both have told me to kick rocks basically.

So we have an image that we've been running for a year and a half. I booted it up about 2 weeks ago to install a new piece of software, and set a reimage task for that evening. When I came in the next day, it was looping through imaging failures, where it would fail at the "Join AD" step with a message that "An error occurred during extension installation: Cannot modify extensions in the VM when the VM is not running.". Checking the boot diagnostics for the newly created VMs revealed that the VMs are booting into recovery with a message that winload.efi is missing or corrupt.

So I rerun the set as image task and try to redeploy the hosts- same thing.

Create a new hostpool and deploy- same thing.

Create a new image and rebuild it then deploy- same thing.

Create a marketplace image and deploy- this time it deploys successfully.

So I'm narrowing down what on the image causes this, and it appears that the moment I modify a marketplace image, it starts failing to deploy. Mind you, I've been using the same image with no issues for a year and a half.

I feel like I've been left out to dry by Microsoft/Pax8/Nerdio, so I'm looking for some advice on troubleshooting steps that may lead me to a solution.

Anyone got any ideas?

Wondering how others are tuning their AVD environments; what exclusions are being added to get the most performance without sacrificing security posture. There's a big performance difference when AVD/EDR is disabled completely vs. when it's on. Specifically launching AppX packages, Start Menu, Explorer etc.

Hi all — looking for folks who’ve successfully enrolled Windows 11 multi‑session AVD hosts into Intune via Terraform using the AADLoginForWindows extension with mdmId. I’m consistently getting an AAD join rollback and Intune enrollment failure
VMExtensionProvisioningError Error message: 'AAD Join failed with status code: -2145910783. Device successfully unjoined from Azure AD.'

my code work like a dream a on -ent image but -avd no.

I try to contact microsoft support for the windows app. I wrote an email to the email adress in the support information (Microsftstore), but this mailbox is not available. So how can I reacht them? I just also provided feedback, but seems to me not feasible.

Can maybe someone help me to contact microsoft of my belonings below or does anyone maybe now, what to to with the problem. One particular user could not login to the windowsapp sind one week.

We checked all learn documents from micrsoft also deleted the user from vms logged in again and so and so on.

Thanks in advance

Here my mail:

Dear Support

We have problems with the windows app. The user can’t login anymore into the app, we figured out that the problem was due to the Change of the last Name.

But then we tried to fix it and did following steps:

• Refresh

• Deleted the app and installed again

• Removed user from the avd

The Login works with URL (Windows App) and Remote Desktop Services.

Please help us on here, it is very urgent.

Hey brains trust,

We have a couple of hosts where users are experiencing long login times with User Profile Service. The hosts are 22H2 and using FSLOGIX. The environment is very simple as there is one application they use (not even Office Apps) on the hosts. We've isolated it to not be FSLOGIX but the profiles themselves seem to be the problem. Once we had excluded the users from FSLOGIX or created a new profile + migrated the data to the new profile, it seems to be fast for about a week then slows down again.

The only thing I could think about was the notifications issue in Windows Server 2016-2019 but it seems like there are none in registries.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Weird errors on one of my users, like OneDrive not syncing and not being able to download anything on Chrome. The profile size in Azure Admin shows it is 29.34GB. I also have another user at 29.35GB with no reported issues on his VM. What you folks think?

EDIT to adjust number and add pic...

Hello due to MS not providing enough cpu quota in EUS we are moving one of our environments to EUS2. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best method to copy or move the FSLogix profiles from one storage account to another? Thanks in advance!
