Al Ardito Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 I am relatively new to app vols, and I was looking for any office 365 recommendations. I also was looking thru the reference below: https://techzone.omnissa.com/resource/best-practices-delivering-microsoft-office-365-vmware-horizon#microsoft-fslogix-office-container O365 recipe link https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-31399 doesnt appear to be working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Patrick VDIHacker Posted May 30 Solution Share Posted May 30 Yeah, the links have been doing some fun things. What OS are you putting it on? Server 2022 or Windows 11 or a later Windows 10 Build? Here is what you were hunting for. https://web.archive.org/web/20200927043555/https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-31399, but the download has been moved too, so Hunting for VMware App Volumes Provisioning Recipe for Microsoft Office 365.pdf led me here "https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/read/57043425/vmware-horizon-7-microsoft-office-365-rdsh-published-applications" so that should get you what you need. The joys of the internet and M&A. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Straat Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 We put Office 365 in our base image because you need to update it every month. Is there a reason you want to create a appstack with it?

Venti Petrov Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 (edited) TobiasK, If you are using FSLogix you can achieve that by using Masking Rules. Here is the very good guide. FSLogix App Masking Rules for M365 Apps-SysManSquad | Systems Management Squad Hope that helps. Edited July 16 by Venti Petrov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If User needs Office + Project or Office + Visio and Project? Ive been using App Masking Rules in FSLogix for months to hide Visio and its worked out great. I would be happy to share the rule i created for it if you like. There is a powershell module out there that helps you create the rules for visio and project. We dont use project so i only created the visio one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vasquezu Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 You will need the FSLogix Apps Rule Editor to read it. The script i used is located here: https://github.com/aaronparker/fslogix/tree/main/Rules MS365_Visio_Hiding.fxr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If User needs Office + Project or Office + Visio and Project? We install the full suite and licenses are user based. We have the full monty with licenses so far. If that changes we simply create groups wether or not they have shortcuts. 1 Quote Senior technical specialst at Leiden University Medical Center (lumc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
