Plan and implement user environments and apps

You are designing application delivery for a pooled AVD host pool running Windows 11 multi-session. The requirement is that applications must NOT be permanently installed on the session hosts, must be attached dynamically at user sign-in, and the golden image must remain unchanged when new app versions are released. Your team also wants Microsoft to handle the application registration and staging process automatically rather than managing it through custom PowerShell scripts. Which application delivery method best meets these requirements?

Contoso deploys a pooled AVD host pool with FSLogix profile containers. The business requires that if the primary Azure Files storage account in the East US region becomes unavailable, users can still sign in and access their profiles from a secondary storage account in West US, with FSLogix automatically writing to both locations. Which FSLogix configuration should you implement?

You manage an Azure Virtual Desktop pooled host pool. Profiles are stored using FSLogix Cloud Cache configured with two storage providers for resiliency. Users report that after a storage account maintenance event, the FSLogix profile always attempted to load from the same provider first, causing a delay while it failed over. You need to review the registry setting that controls the ordered list of storage locations Cloud Cache uses for profile VHD(X) files. Which registry value under HKLM\SOFTWARE\FSLogix\Profiles should you inspect?

Your organization runs a pooled, breadth-first AVD host pool with FSLogix Profile Containers stored on Azure Files. A subset of power users report that when they connect to a second session (on a different session host) while their first session is still active, their profile fails to load and they receive a temporary profile. You must allow these specific users to have their profile load correctly across multiple simultaneous sessions without corrupting profile data. Which FSLogix setting should you configure?

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?

You manage a pooled AVD host pool where FSLogix Profile Containers are stored on an Azure Files share. Users report that after several weeks, the share is filling rapidly even though individual profiles are relatively small. Investigation shows each user's profile VHDX file was created at its maximum configured size regardless of actual data stored. You need to reduce storage consumption so that profile disks consume only the space actually used, while retaining the configured maximum size ceiling. Which FSLogix registry setting should you configure?

A pooled AVD host pool uses FSLogix Profile Containers stored on an Azure Files share. After a storage networking outage, users reported being unexpectedly logged on with brand-new temporary local profiles instead of receiving an error, which caused confusion and lost work. To prevent this behavior in the future so that users are instead prevented from signing in (or shown a failure) when their Profile Container cannot be attached, which FSLogix registry setting under HKLM\SOFTWARE\FSLogix\Profiles should you configure?

A financial services company deploys FSLogix Profile Containers on a pooled AVD host pool. Users complain that sign-in and sign-out are slow. Investigation shows that a large local cache folder created by a line-of-business application is being roamed inside every profile container, bloating the VHDX and slowing container attach/detach. The company wants to prevent that specific folder from being stored in the profile container while still roaming the rest of the user profile. What should you implement?

You are deploying Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise on a pooled, multi-session Azure Virtual Desktop host pool. Multiple users sign in to the same session host at different times. After installation, users report that Office prompts them to activate individually and licenses become tied to each device. You need to ensure Office activates correctly for all users in this non-persistent, multi-session environment. What should you configure?

Users in a pooled AVD host pool report choppy, high-latency video playback when watching training videos on an internal web portal and on YouTube using Microsoft Edge inside their session. Audio-video calls in Teams already work well because the WebRTC Redirector is deployed. You need to improve the smoothness of the embedded HTML5 video playback in the browser while minimizing server-side CPU on the session hosts. What should you implement?

You manage a pooled AVD host pool running Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session. Users are non-persistent and roam between session hosts, with FSLogix Profile Containers already configured. You need to deploy OneDrive so that it starts silently for each user, works correctly in the multi-session environment, and automatically redirects and syncs each user's Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders into their OneDrive. Which combination of configuration steps should you use?

You are deploying Microsoft OneDrive to a pooled multi-session Windows 11 AVD host pool. Users are complaining that after each logon they must manually enter their credentials to configure the OneDrive sync client before Known Folder Move takes effect. Your organization uses Microsoft Entra ID (Microsoft Entra ID) joined session hosts. Which configuration should you apply to eliminate the manual sign-in prompt so OneDrive configures automatically at logon?

You manage a pooled AVD host pool used by financial analysts who work with large spreadsheets across three monitors. Users report that when they connect with the Windows App client, their sessions only use a single monitor and they cannot access files on their local C: drive from within the session. You need to change the host pool so that new connections span all available monitors and allow users to open local drives inside the session, without editing settings on each client device. What should you do?

You manage a pooled, non-persistent AVD host pool that is rebuilt weekly from a golden image in an Azure Compute Gallery. The finance team needs a legacy line-of-business application published as a RemoteApp. The application ships only as a traditional MSI installer, requires a machine-wide registry key, and must be identical across all session hosts. Users must NOT be able to install or update the app themselves. What is the recommended way to deliver this application to the session hosts?

Your organization runs a pooled AVD host pool for a call center. Compliance requires that any session left inactive (no keyboard or mouse input) for 15 minutes automatically disconnects, and that a session that remains disconnected for 1 hour is signed out completely to free resources. You must enforce this consistently across all session hosts using Group Policy. Which combination of Remote Desktop Services session time limit policies should you configure?

You are deploying Microsoft Teams with media optimization on a pooled AVD host pool running Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session. You have already installed the WebRTC Redirector Service and set the registry key IsWVDEnvironment to 1. When you install the Teams desktop client, users report that Teams runs in a non-optimized state and calls place high CPU load on the session hosts. What is the MOST likely cause?

Your organization runs Microsoft Teams in an Azure Virtual Desktop pooled multi-session host pool with WebRTC media optimization fully deployed and verified. Users report that outgoing audio, video, and screen sharing all work correctly, but when a user shares their desktop, the 'Give control' and 'Request control' options are unavailable during optimized meetings. You must enable control-sharing during screen share without breaking existing media optimization. What should you do?

Contoso runs a pooled AVD host pool on Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session. The organization has no on-premises print servers and wants users to print to office printers directly from their AVD sessions without deploying and maintaining print server infrastructure. Printers must appear automatically for users based on their assigned location. What should you implement?

Your organization runs a single pooled multi-session AVD host pool used by three departments: Finance, Legal, and Marketing. A specialized accounting application is installed on the shared session host image, but for licensing compliance the application must be visible and launchable only for members of the Finance Active Directory security group. All other users must not see or be able to run the application, even though it is present on the same VMs. You want to enforce this without maintaining separate host pools or images. Which FSLogix capability should you implement?

Your company runs a pooled AVD host pool with Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session. Users complain that during Microsoft Teams calls, audio and video are choppy and CPU usage on session hosts spikes. You confirm Teams is installed per-machine, but you suspect media optimization is not active. When you open Teams and check Settings > About > Version, the connection status shows 'AVD Media not connected.' What is the MOST likely missing component that must be installed to enable Teams media optimization?
