Appstream Application mode - Office 365 issue

0

Hello, I am having an odd issue with activating my 365 products using Appstream in Application mode- at this time I have tried using office installations using a custom XML for RDS however when ever I enter my email (or a user their email) for activation, Excel locks up and we are unable to run reports. I am using azure sso for this configuration, anyone have ideas or encounter this issue? Help would be appreciated!

Greetings, I was able to get a workaround that helped me a ton with this. In order to serve up a "KIOSK" environment, I went ahead and REMOVED Firefox, as well as created a Windows firewall rule to block all outbound traffic from IE (effectively making it a KIOSK environment) as well as some GPOs to harden the system and blocking CMD prompt, powershell etc. I hope this helps someone in the future!

This is a known issue and is pending a fix from Microsoft (no ETA).

As a workaround, you can use your fleet in Desktop view and login to your Microsoft apps.
