Question

You are configuring FSLogix Profile Containers on a pooled AVD host pool. You have created an SMB share on Azure Files and assigned the correct NTFS and share permissions. Users report that their profiles are not roaming — a fresh local profile is created at each logon. Which registry configuration under HKLM\SOFTWARE\FSLogix\Profiles is the minimum required to enable Profile Containers and point them at the share?

Accepted Answer

Set Enabled = 1 (DWORD) and VHDLocations = the UNC path to the SMB share (REG_MULTI_SZ or REG_SZ)

Answer

Set CCDLocations to the UNC path and leave Enabled unset, since Cloud Cache handles the redirection automatically

Answer

Set VolumeType = VHDX and RedirXMLSourceFolder to the UNC path of the share

Answer

Set Enabled = 1 only; FSLogix auto-discovers the nearest storage account without a location value
