(WVD) Windows Virtual Desktop USB Redirection Full
Hi Guys, I was wondering if there are plans for (or if it is already available) adding USB redirection - for Other Supported RemoteFX USB devices , which is available using RDS and MSTSC, and was previously available in Azure RemoteApp. This was/is required for redirecting footpedals (and some other peripherals) All tests so far seem to suggest this isn't possible.

Profile avatar/pic has a new badge - the letter "P"?
Just started noticing this in the Teams desktop app. Does anyone know what this "P" means? I have never seen it before and haven't found anything in the docs.

Disable Skype for Business Video
We would like the ability to disable Video chat on a number of shared workstations. When users log on to their normal workstation they should be able to use video but when they log on to our shared workstations in a secure area we don't want it as an option. Is this possible? Are there several methods? What have you found to work best?

Powershell - Lock screen & Desktop background issue
I am currently starting to configure for a smaller organisation, using Intune for MDM, I've managed to successfully change my Azure AD login to be a standard user (I don't want every user having full administration rights) - that works well and I've assigned an Azure AD group to have admin privileges. So my next step is to set a corporate lock screen and desktop background image, using this script. But I now have an issue, either way I want to handle the script in Intune. Running script as: Run this script using the logged on credentials: No The script runs, but the user doesn't download the image files (having tested with administrative privileges in Powershell - the user doesn't have an internet connection, as the laptop is on wifi). So the lock screen and desktop background don't get set. Run this script using the logged on credentials: Yes The script runs, downloads the files successfully but then can't set the registry keys (as my standard user doesn't have permission to alter registry keys). So the lock screen and desktop background don't get set. Do Powershell scripts run in order - and sequentially? That way I could set two scripts, one to download and one to set the registry keys. Or is there any other way of achieving this? Please bear in mind I'm using Windows 10 Pro - so the usual Intune background settings don't work with. Many thanks.

Uninstalling games from the Xbox app doesn't remove game shortcut from desktop
Install games from Xbox app, play it, then uninstall it, the shortcut that was made automatically on desktop will still be there, having a white placeholder icon. Expected behavior: the shortcut on desktop should be removed when the game is uninstalled from the uninstall option of the Xbox app. occurring in latest Windows 10 insider Dev build and Xbox app if you can reproduce it, add your details to this feedback: https://aka.ms/AAcirp2

Is Dark mode for Bing desktop on the roadmap?
I really need the dark mode on Bing, i'm sure a lot of people agree with me too. dark mode is very useful feature, lots of apps and websites have a dark mode by now. Bing for mobile has it, only the desktop version is missing it. is it on the roadmap? if not, why? and if it's coming, when can we expect that? thank you

New floating button for the Web Widget in Edge
you can drag and drop it you can put it anywhere on the screen but it's sticky, so it automatically sticks to sides. if you drag and drop it on the center of your screen, it automatically sticks to one of the 3 sides, (Top, Right, Left), also got smooth animation when it sticks. it stays always on top of other windows (except for full screen games which I just tested) can be turned on and off using the option shown in the screenshot below How do you launch Web Widget? it launches automatically on Windows startup (unless you disable it from Edge settings or Windows settings) you can launch it by right-clicking on Edge canary shortcut on Start menu and selecting "Launch Web Widget" you can launch it from Edge settings page: edge://settings/newTabPage you can launch it by pressing Edge's (...) menu button => More tools => Launch Web Widget Microsoft Edge Version 90.0.816.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) This might be a Controlled feature rollout
