### Updates to the preview version of FSLogix profiles for Azure AD-joined VMs
28
+
29
+
We've updated the public preview version of the Azure Files integration with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) Kerberos for hybrid identities so that it's now simpler to deploy and manage. The update should give users using FSLogix user profiles on Azure AD-joined session host an overall better experience. For more information, see [the Azure Files blog post](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-storage-blog/public-preview-leverage-azure-active-directory-kerberos-with/ba-p/3612111).

In the Windows Insider build of Windows 11 22H2, you can now enable a preview version of the Azure Active Directory (AD)-based single sign-on experience. This Windows Insider build also supports passwordless authentication with Windows Hello and security devices like FIDO2 keys. For more information, see [our blog post](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-virtual-desktop/insider-preview-single-sign-on-and-passwordless-authentication/m-p/3608842).

### Universal Print for Azure Virtual Desktop now in Windows Insider preview
36
+
37
+
The Windows Insider build of Windows 11 22H2 also includes a preview version of the Universal Print for Azure Virtual Desktop feature. We hope this feature will provide an improved printing experience that combines the benefits of Azure Virtual Desktop and Universal Print for Windows 11 multi-session users. Learn more at [Printing on Azure Virtual Desktop using Universal Print](/universal-print/fundamentals/universal-print-avd) and [our blog post](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-virtual-desktop/a-better-printing-experience-for-azure-virtual-desktop-with/m-p/3598592).

Autoscale on Azure Virtual Desktop for pooled host pools is now generally available. This feature is a native automated scaling solution that automatically turns session host virtual machines on and off according to the schedule and capacity thresholds that you define to fit your workload. Learn more at [How autoscale works](autoscale-scenarios.md) and [our blog post](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-virtual-desktop-blog/announcing-general-availability-of-autoscale-for-pooled-host/ba-p/3591462).

###Azure Virtual Desktop moving away from Storage Blob image type

Storage Blob images are created from unmanaged disks, which means they lack the availability, scalability, and frictionless user experience that managed images and Shared Image Gallery images offer. As a result, Azure Virtual Desktop will be deprecating support for Storage Blobs image types by August 22, 2022. For more information, see [our blog post](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-virtual-desktop-blog/azure-virtual-desktop-is-moving-away-from-storage-blob-image/ba-p/3568364).

Starting July 21, 2022, Azure Virtual Desktop will replace the Custom Configuration Azure Resource Manager template parameters for creating host pools, adding session hosts to host pools, and the Getting Started feature with a PowerShell script URL parameter stored in a publicly accessible location.
