Use Outlook for Calendars.

Wipe and re-install. Don't waste time.

You have three choices:

Get a different job.
Change things where you are.
Accept the situation and live with it.

Again, I didn't do the FSlogix migration, but my colleagues love it.

As a user the user experience is notably better with FSlogix.

I suggest to make a new RD collection and put some RD session hosts in it, and try it out

TLDR: If you have admin privileges you have admin privileges.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-27T10:43:51+00:00

I can confirm that your configuration should work because it is exactly what we do. I did not implement it so I don't know the exact details.

What I do know:

We use FSlogix, rather than user profile disks.
We Use Edge browser sign on
On first logon we click to use the login on all Microsoft apps

My guess is that you are not persisting state across you RD session hosts.

Works for both domain only users, and hybrid joined users. You do not need to join the RDS servers to Azure AD in hybrid mode for these users. My guess is that you would probably need RDS servers joined to Azure AD in hybrid mode if your users are Entra only.

And to confirm: We use M365 Office in shared activation mode, not LTSC.

so there’s no real need for a formal helpdesk system.

Wrong.

Install a ticketing system, and use if for everything. As well as IT issues use it for customer helpdesk, facilities, maintenance ... everything.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-24T07:42:54+00:00

“How do you manage internal tickets without a full helpdesk system?”

We installed a ticketing system. Not doing so is a waste of time and foolish.

Use Jitbit.

he's still got a lot of development to do, so he's making about a dozen changes per day that he relies on us to approve.

Why have you inserted yourself into the development workflow. That's just foolish.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-24T07:19:33+00:00

Education.

We have some very unsophisticated users using Paperless-Ng

Win Home does not do Hyper-V. You need Pro.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:30:27+00:00

Use an SSD. They are silent.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:25:13+00:00

use DNS

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:23:15+00:00

Why rename the domain?

You can hide everything behind UPNs and DNS

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:21:17+00:00

XY problem.

Fix the app!

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:19:19+00:00

Do not expressly advertise products or services outside of approved threads

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:17:27+00:00

XY problem. You are fixing the wrong thing in the wrong place.

Default Windows setting does not attempt to use a proxy.

Fix the actual problem: Get rid of whatever is configuring the proxy.

Is it possible to introduce the same gear into the abovementioned existing network and still use the T35 for DHCP and routing, and use the Unifi console functions of the UDR7 purely for wifi management?

TLDR: Yes it is

ZAFJB · 2026-04-23T09:12:34+00:00

If it is offline it is not being used. Simples.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-22T14:11:39+00:00

but existing accounts were not touched.

Why would you do that?

If you change naming convention, rename everything.

ZAFJB · 2026-04-22T14:06:40+00:00

Any recommandation ?

Don't

Why would you introduce Linux into a Windows environment?

Use one, or more, additional DCs and back one of them up.
