Connect to Azure Virtual Desktop

Hi there,

I would like to connect to the Azure Virtual Desktop over RDM. At the moment I'm using Remote Desktop Client from MS and URL - how can I connect to that with RDM? I couldn't find it at all.

Hello

I'm afraid I don't have much good news here. Microsoft has not ever exposed the functionality needed for third parties to integrate with AVD. We have some workarounds in place that might provide a partial solution - your mileage may vary, it works "ok" for some users but unfortunately it's the best we are able to provide with what Microsoft has given.

You can start by following the steps in this post.

Please note the important detail that Microsoft RDC needs to be installed by its .msi, not from the Windows Store. This is itself becoming a blocker as Microsoft has started to deprecate the .msi installer for it's RDC client.

Let me know if something is not clear or you have any problems, and we will try to help; but our hands are largely tied here.

Thanks and kind regards,

Richard Markievicz
