In pooled multi-user AVD deployments FSLogix is mandatory to manage the individual user profiles in the pool. When the user signs in to AVD FSLogix redirects to the data and settings in the container and the virtual drive is mounted to transparently integrate into the virtual desktop environment. In Azure Virtual Desktop, FSLogix is a profile container holding user profiles in a Virtual Hard Disk v2(VHDX) file. As such, it will have a single user profile and no need for multi-user profile management. Windows 365 is a single-user managed desktop which will run in Microsoft’s Azure environment.
