AVD applications using App attach feature might fail to start

After upgrading to Windows 11, version 24H2, Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) users might face issues with applications using the App attach feature. While attempting to start App attach applications, users might encounter an error message that displays the error message ‘Element not found’. App attach is a feature that allows users to add applications to user sessions without installing them directly on the virtual machine. 

This issue is expected to occur when App attach applications are packaged in CIMFS (Composite Image File System) format. CIMFS is a file system used in Azure Virtual Desktop for managing application images.

This issue only applies to Windows versions running in Azure Virtual Desktop.

Workaround: Users can use VHDX (Virtual Hard Disk v2) image instead of CIMFS image for packaging files. 

Next steps: We are working on a resolution and will provide more information when it is available.

Intel and Microsoft have found incompatibility issues with certain versions of drivers for Intel Smart Sound Technology (Intel SST) on Intel 11th Gen Core processors and Windows 11, version 24H2. Devices running version 24H2 with the affected Intel SST driver might receive an error with a blue screen. The affected driver is named Intel® Smart Sound Technology (Intel® SST) Audio Controller. It is listed under System Devices in Device Manager and is found with the file name 'IntcAudioBus.sys'. If this file is version 10.29.0.5152 or 10.30.0.5152, this issue can occur.

Only devices with both an Intel 11th Gen Core processors and an Intel SST driver version of 10.29.0.5152 or 10.30.0.5152 are affected by this issue.
