FSLogix v3: Microsoft’s Quiet Comeback for VDI Warriors

Microsoft’s dropped FSLogix v3, and it’s live as of today, February 22, 2025. After a quiet stretch since 2210, here’s what this update brings to the VDI party.

The Scoop

Long Wait Over: Last big drop was 2210 (Dec 2022). V3, teased in Early Access Dec 2024, proves FSLogix isn’t snoozing.
Focus: Stability, Teams alignment, and some handy tweaks—not a feature explosion.

What’s New in v3?

• Versioning Glow-Up:
  Jumped to v3; builds now use date format (e.g., 25.XX for 2025).
  Major releases will tick up (3, 4, 5…), promising steadier updates.

• Cloud Cache Gets Flexible:
  No more “failure = config error” nonsense.
  Easier to test redundancy—perfect for custom setups.

• PowerShell Module:
  New Microsoft.FSLogix module for Cloud Cache sleuthing.
  Logs, status, fixes—less manual digging.

• Stability & Teams Love:
  Beefed-up reliability, smoother Teams integration.
  Fewer crashes in multi-session VDI (fingers crossed).

• Spring Cleaning:
  Dropped 32-bit OS support (Windows 7, Server 2012 R2—bye!).
  Axed Cloud Cache size limits, system tray applet, Profile Config Tool.

  Why It Matters

• Lifeline for Admins: After late-night FSLogix battles (like that failover test that aged me a decade), v3’s Cloud Cache tweaks and PowerShell module mean more control, fewer tears.

• Teams Fix: Hybrid work demands solid Teams in VDI—v3 delivers.

• No More Ghosting: Two-year gap since 2210 had me worried; new versioning says Microsoft’s in it for the long haul—hallelujah!

  What’s Missing?

• No Big Bang: Less “wow” than 2210’s disk compaction—more of a tune-up.

• TBC: Early Access hints at a base for future goodies—stay tuned.

  Get It

• Tip: Upgrade to v3 for latest support.

  Final Take

  Verdict: Not flashy, but v3 keeps FSLogix steady for VDI pros. Cloud Cache and Teams fixes? Yes, please.
