# Create a file share for MSIX app attach

When a user in a host pool accesses MSIX images, they must be stored in a network share with read-only permissions. In this how-to, you'll learn the steps needed to setup a file share for MSIX app attach.

MSIX app attach doesn't have dependencies on the type of storage fabric the file share uses. The considerations for the MSIX app attach share are same as those for an FSLogix share. To learn more about storage requirements, see [Storage options for FSLogix profile containers in Azure Virtual Desktop](store-fslogix-profile.md).

MSIX app attach image size limits for your system depend on the storage type you're using to store the VHD or VHDX files, as well as the size limitations of the VHD, VHDX or CIM files and the file system.

Requirements can vary widely depending how many MSIX-packaged applications are stored in the MSIX image. For larger MSIX images, you'll need to allocate more bandwidth.

- Any disaster recovery plans for Azure Virtual Desktop must include replicating the MSIX app attach file share in your secondary failover location. To learn more about disaster recovery, see [Set up a business continuity and disaster recovery plan](disaster-recovery.md). You'll also need to ensure your file share path is accessible in the secondary location. You can use [Distributed File System (DFS) Namespaces](/windows-server/storage/dfs-namespaces/dfs-overview) to provide a single share name across different file shares.

The setup process for MSIX app attach file share is largely the same as [the setup process for FSLogix profile file shares](create-host-pools-user-profile.md). However, you'll need to assign users different permissions. MSIX app attach requires read-only permissions to access the file share.

If you're storing your MSIX applications in Azure Files, then for your session hosts, you'll need to assign all session hosts VMs both storage account role-based access control (RBAC) and file share New Technology File System (NTFS) permissions on the share.
