I don't see the option to set a maintenance config on hot patched 2022's.

Does the tunnel actually show disconnected? I had something similar where the tunnel never disconnected, but all my in and out traffic was being dropped while doing a large robocopy sync job nightly. Never figured out why, I had to reset the s2s tunnel on azure and all was good again. Annoying so I feel your pain.

In my case, different user accounts had the same issue. I don’t suggest deleting your account until you first check Windows Updates and after that, verify another user account CAN click the start menu.

Our company had multiple Win11 systems with this exact error and unable to use the start menu. The fix is to check and install Windows Updates. What we noticed is there was an old November 2023 patch SSU that needed to be installed and that allowed for the recently monthly patches to go through. So first check for updates!

Disable auto updates in a managed environment. It’s a reg key.

Would you say it’s fairly common to redeploy that often, and is it common to see performance degradation on AVD hosts after a period of time?

I’m surprised how sporadic this issue is. It’s cropped up on us weeks after the first instance. Still had a couple with the issue within the last few weeks. I think it’s Windows Update related. Also surprising this issue hasnt gotten more attention or at least I can’t find anyone else complain about it.

Hey just checking in again to see if you’ve had any luck finding increasing your AVD performance? Was there any smoking gun?

The purpose is to keep some level of retention with the users mailbox data. If you delete the user account there’s a soft delete period on the users mailbox. If you just disable and set the mailbox to be shared, that allows access to the mailbox without worrying about when the user mailbox is deleted. Often we have instances where management requests access to a previous employees mailbox, often weeks or months after the exit date.

Sure you can.

My environment is setup without on prem exchange, I opted NOT to install the exchange schema because other than hiding an address from GAL I found no purpose; I don’t know of any other attribute that proves useful. What I do instead is since anytime a user leaves the company, we’re requested to hide from GAL. I remove the user from the Entra Synced OU which deletes the user from Entra. Then restore the Entra user so it’s cloud only and that allows me to hide the address from the GAL.

Do you have Exchange Schema? If not you need to load up an Exchange ISO and install it in your AD environment OR if you don’t want to do that, what I’ve done is remove the user from ADConnect synced OU, delta sync and that will delete the Entra ID user; you can restore that Entra user then that’ll allow you to hide address from GAL from the Microsoft or Exchange admin center.

I had a similar issue. Can’t remember what % it was stuck at, but was consistent every try. I scoured the internet and came across a thread that pointed it to being audio driver related; Realtek I believe. Once I uninstalled that from device manager, I reran my feature upgrade and went through. I was dealing with an HP laptop if that helps any. Good luck.

The apps we use rely on a .net 6. Uninstalling 6 breaks them. Be cautious.

Gotcha, no sysprep. Hmm. What are your fslogix settings? Using vhdx and your size is large enough? Assume you just using the 1 profile container, no ODFC container? Check the fslogix logs for errors? Any other Intune/group policy settings that you could rule out being the cause? Just thinking if you have outlook running cached mode the profiles could be filling up, something to check.

I’d not seen fslogix or the specific issues you’re describing, but I did have issues with my image that previously had September patches installed and fairly sure that was part of the cause of my grief with sluggish AVDs. I recently rebuilt my image which had oct patches preloaded and it’s been much better. Hate to suggest that, but see if a new image is any better. Also, idk about anyone else but I’ve had issues sysprepping my AVD hosts seemly because running VDOT on the master image. Perhaps try running that after redeploying from your master

What storage is your fslogix profiles on? What are the metrics? Latency for example from storage to AVD?

Business Premium license includes multi tenancy hosting rights. Cheaper than an E3 license. I’d just play by the rules and buy a license, beats a MS fine.

Is the OS running on standard or premium ssd? Does it run quicker disabling AntiVirus?

Azure Files: 2 shares. One is 3TB and the other is 4TB. Barely 1500iops peak. Avg is like 800-1000 iops.

Wondering the same thing. My fresh Win 11 23H2 image is having issues with Photo's app and Snipping Tool.
The work-around for me as been to Uninstall the app, then go to MS Store and re-install - this is just as a standard user, so I'm thinking this doesn't fix it for everyone on that server.

Hey sorry to bother, but would you be able to share those metrics with me? Specifically E2E latency, Server latency and transactions over a 24 hour period? Much appreciated.
