Windows 365 Link: Enhancing the Cloud PC Experience
Thomas Marcussen is a Windows and Devices MVP. He wrote a great post about enhancing the Windows 365 experience with Windows 365 Link.
“As an increasing number of organizations are adopting Windows 365, Microsoft has chosen the opportune moment to introduce the first Cloud PC device. Now in public preview, this small device has a Windows-based OS that will connect you to Windows 365 in seconds.
After quickly signing in to your Cloud PC, you can securely connect to your familiar Windows desktop in the Microsoft cloud.
To simplify use, Microsoft has designed it such that admins can leverage Intune to manage Windows 365 Link devices alongside other devices. This means that IT will benefit from a more streamlined management experience.”

We always recommend using the Automatic region option when using the Microsoft Hosted Network network type.
