avd issues

About this tag
The tag 'avd issues' covers problems affecting Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) connections, particularly those introduced by Windows updates. A prominent example is KB5074109, a January 2025 cumulative update for Windows 11 that includes security and quality fixes but also breaks AVD and Windows 365 Cloud PC connections in managed environments.
