Finally a detailed guide step by step on how to do this manually. Most of the guides i have seen follow the quick setup that creates everything. Thank you for making this
This video was incredibly helpful to me. The explanations were clear and easy to follow, making the process of setting up Azure Virtual Desktops much simpler. Thank you for such a great guide.
Hi @Tech Pub, Do you maybe know a way that the users will get a "clean" environment every time they login. I mean without any files saved, browsing history, cookies etc..
You've used the join to Entra ID (previous known as Azure Active Directory) but what would you recommend when there is a need for a server eith some shares and a legacy application installed? How do the users connect to this server? Is there a need for Entra Domain Services or such?
I have a question. If I only have 1 Azure Virtual Desktop is it possible for me to grant or restrict access to some local folders on the C: Drive of the Virtual Desktop. I have multiple people connecting via their Virtual Desktop Session I want everyone to access the folders on the C: Drive because they need it for accounting I just DON'T want them to copy/delete or do whatever they want with thoses folders. I know that I can't use NTFS permission in my situation. Is their any way to restrict access via the Virtual Desktop Session instead. Thanks in advance.
I am having the same issues as some others here. Followed everything, getting this "Sign in failed. Please check your username and password and try again." with both local and ad accounts. Any suggestions?
That Azure AD User, may I know where did you create that? Do they need an azure account? Coz I just want my employees to connect to multi-session desktop but they don't have an azure account.
Thanks@@techpub! May I know what should I be doing for the 2nd/3rd user to login into that same AVD that I just created? So far, I can only login to 1 user.
I have been an IT professional now for 35+ years. And it never fails, the simplest things in Microsoft, error with some strange error message with no direct lookup that explain what it is. I have a brand new Azure subscription with my prior Office 365 AD account. I just subscripted to Azure services so nothing currently exists. I am trying the Virtual Desktop GETTING STARTED wizard which is supposed to create the EDS. But everything fails with a write error. Ugh! So much for using the Wizard.
@@pandianvenkat-je3cs thanks for this but I already fixed it. It might just be a bug or something because I already did what you said before I asked the question but still not fixed. But when I deleted the host pool and recreated everything, it worked.
Valuable session
Awesome! Thanks for watching.

Crystal Clear Video - Excellent

Hi @Tech Pub,
Do you maybe know a way that the users will get a "clean" environment every time they login.

Only with a new user would that happen.
You've used the join to Entra ID (previous known as Azure Active Directory) but what would you recommend when there is a need for a server eith some shares and a legacy application installed? How do the users connect to this server? Is there a need for Entra Domain Services or such?
You can use a virtual machine at Azure connected to Entra. Users can connect using RDP on port 3389, or you can setup an Azure VPN.

Hi Robert!
What are the prereqs for if I need to join this VM to my on-prem AD?
Just make sure your VM switch is set to external and on the same subnet as the DC.
@@techpub You mean adding DC IP to vnet subnets?
If I complete this lap, it is gonna cost me how much? Any solution for this, please?
I am having the same issues as some others here. Followed everything, getting this "Sign in failed. Please check your username and password and try again." with both local and ad accounts. Any suggestions?
For me, it looks like it was MFA. I had to exclude the user account from MFA using conditional access.
Thanks for the tip Ricky.
That Azure AD User, may I know where did you create that? Do they need an azure account? Coz I just want my employees to connect to multi-session desktop but they don't have an azure account.
Youc an create it in admin.microsoft.com or entra.microsoft. Thanks for watching!
Thanks@@techpub! May I know what should I be doing for the 2nd/3rd user to login into that same AVD that I just created? So far, I can only login to 1 user.
Instead of creating 3 individual VMs for 3 users, can I create only 1 VM and let 3 people connect to it? I tried your steps and only 1 can connect.
That is a good question. I assume you can by adding the RBAC permissions. I will have to look into that.

Your video is great content though.
Sorry to hear you're having a hard time. Let me know when you get a resolution so we can post it.
Mine's having a trouble with resource being unavailable because of DomainADJoined and DomainTrust problem.
Pls select correct option in domain enable section. Whether you have Active Directory or MS Entra ID while add session host.
Thanks for helping out.

when connecting to the virtual desktop it askes for a password, when i use my microsoft password it doesn't work! when did we set it up?
I completed all the steps in this video and when I try to connect to the virtual desktop it is also saying invalid user
I was able to get in using the local admin account that we created.
Glad to hear you got it.
Im also having the same issue, were you able to fix it? And how? Also using the winadmin login also doesnt work for me
Hi.. was my comment deleted?
I didn't see it. Maybe the algo got you for some reason.
Nice video cutting all crap, discussed what is required.
Thanks for the view
