The course is part of this learning path
An important aspect of any Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environment is ensuring you are able to manage the environment and apps in an efficient manner. This includes managing printers and policies and being able to troubleshoot issues quickly. This in turn gives a much smoother experience to end-users. AVD allows integration with both on-premises and cloud-native services, which allows you to:
- Deploy group policies and cloud-managed policies to manage user settings
- Deploy printers via Azure
- Configure environment properties
- Troubleshoot issues
Ensuring settings within the environment are configured correctly is an important factor in giving the end-user a good experience when they are using Azure Virtual Desktop. This course will help you to configure end-user experience settings and allow you to streamline your Azure Virtual Desktop experience.
Learning Objectives
- Configure Universal Print
- Configure user settings through Group Policies and Endpoint Manager policies
- Configure persistent and non-persistent desktop environments
- Configure Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) properties on a host pool
- Configure session timeout properties
- Troubleshoot user profile issues
- Troubleshoot Azure Virtual Desktop clients
Intended Audience

- Want to become an Azure Virtual Desktop Specialist
