Configure Session Time Limits for Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PCs

In this article, you’ll learn how to configure session time limits for Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PCs in Intune. When you create a session time limit policy for Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PCs, the inactive Cloud PC sessions will be disconnected based on the idle session limit that you define.

Your organization must instruct employees to save their work at the end of their shift and explicitly disconnect or sign out using any Windows end-session control in order to make the Frontline licence available for use by another employee. Microsoft strongly suggests configuring a Session Time Limit policy to enforce when inactive Cloud PC sessions are terminated, as some employees may forget to do so.

Windows 365 Frontline is a new concept of Windows 365 that helps organizations save costs by allowing a single license to provision three Cloud PC virtual machines. Windows 365 Frontline is for organizations of all sizes with shift and part-time workers who require access to Cloud PCs only for limited amounts of time, such as during their scheduled hours. Take a look at useful guide on creating a Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PC provisioning policy.

This policy setting allows you to specify the maximum amount of time that an active Remote Desktop Services session can be idle (without user input) before it is automatically disconnected. If you enable this policy setting, you must select the desired time limit in the Idle session limit list. Remote Desktop Services will automatically disconnect active but idle sessions after the specified amount of time. The user receives a warning two minutes before the session disconnects, which allows the user to press a key or move the mouse to keep the session active. If you have a console session, idle session time limits do not apply. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the time limit is not specified at the Group Policy level. By default, Remote Desktop Services allows sessions to remain active but idle for an unlimited amount of time.

Expand Administrative Templates and toggle “Set your idle but active session limit for Remote Desktop Services sessions” to Enabled. Click the drop-down for the Idle Session Limit and select a value. In the screenshot below, the idle session limit is set to 1 hour. Click Next.

Selecting scope tags are optional. However, you may include or add scope tags. Click Next.

On the Assignments tab, choose “Add groups” and select the groups to whom you would like to assign the session time limit policy (for Frontline Cloud PCs). You could select all users who are using Windows 365 Frontline, depending on whether you’d like to customize the timeout policy based on the types of users. Click Next.

On the Review+Create window, review the settings that you have defined for idle session time limit policy for Frontline Cloud PCs and select Create.

Monitor Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PC Session Time Limit Policy


After you create the policy, a notification will appear automatically in the top right-hand corner with a message. Policy Created – “Configure Session Time Limits for Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PCs” created successfully. The policy is also shown in the list of Configuration profiles.

You must wait for the policy to apply to the targeted groups and once the devices check-in with the Intune service they will receive your profile settings. You can also force sync Intune policies on your computers.

Likewise, you can monitor the device configuration profiles in Microsoft Intune with a few simple steps. Furthermore, you can check the status of a profile, see which devices are assigned, and update the properties of a profile. To accomplish that, go to Devices > Configuration Profiles > select Frontline Cloud PC Session Time Limit policy profile. Under the section “Device and user check-in status“, select View Report.

2 Best Solutions: Error Can’t Connect to Windows 365

In this article, I will show you how to resolve the error can’t connect to Windows 365. If you are unable to access your Cloud PC using the Windows 365 app, there are two ways to solve this issue. I normally connect to my Cloud PC using the Windows 365 app. Note that there are multiple ways to connect and access your Cloud PCs. For instance, you can connect to a cloud PC using the Windows 365 home page, the Windows 365 App, or the Microsoft Remote Desktop client. Cloud PCs are accessible to users only after you assign Windows 365 licenses to users. Note that you should also provision Windows 365 Cloud PCs that allow users to access them from any device. In my case, the provisioning policy in place for Cloud PCs and a valid license was assigned to the user. In some cases, when you attempt to connect to Cloud PC, there may be gateway errors or connection errors. Refer to the following guide on troubleshooting Cloud PC connection errors, where I have covered solutions for Cloud PC access ...

Fix Autopilot Profile Status Shows Not Assigned | Stuck Assigning

In this post, I will share some basic steps to resolve issue where the Autopilot profile status shows Not Assigned. If you don’t see the status of Autopilot deployment profile for devices as assigned, I will share multiple solutions to resolve the issue. When you create a Autopilot deployment profile, you assign the profile to a device group. This device group consists of computers that you have registered for Autopilot in Intune. The process of importing a device may take up to 15 minutes. You can run the refresh option to check if the device is imported successfully. After you have assigned the autopilot deployment profile to a device group, the profile status for the devices changes from Updating to Assigned. In some cases, the Autopilot profile status for devices gets stuck at the Assigning step and finally shows as Not Assigned. This is a common issue but gets resolved after waiting for a few hours. If the Autopilot Profile status shows not resolved and if this issue persists for ...
