FSLogix registry issue

Question

Hi.
We are using FSLogix for profile management in Win19 RDS environment, both Profile and Office Containers are enabled. Also, we use logon scripts to perform various registry operations.
And have next issue:
Logon script adds some registry value(enables Office add-in), but this value “disappears” from registry.
I see “disappearing” literally using another user session, Regedit and F5, value appears and disappears in 1-2 seconds.
Disabling Office Container resolves issue, registry value remains after logon process.
Looks like, Office Container replaces registry changes in some way(re-mount profile?).
Has anyone encountered such behavior? Is there any solution?

Answer 1

Hello @Yurko ,

Is there any screenshot for the issue?
Can you show your registry settings of Profile Container and Office Container?
Is there any settings in the Office Container that conflict with Office add-in registry value?
Will the issue be reproduced if you don't add the Office add-in registry value but still enable Office Container?

Thanks for reply @Leila Kong .
The problem is that the registry values are applied and then “disappears”, screenshot doesn’t describe anything.
If I set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\FSLogix\ODFC\Enabled=0 (disable Office container), these registry values do not disappear.
Logon script just adds add-in open value:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\excel\options\OPEN=”some path”
Here is configuration for Profile and Office containers:

90180-profile-container.txt 90251-office-container.txt

Hello @Yurko ,

Will the issue still occur if you enable office related registry values in the Office Container?

Answer 4

Hello @Yurko ,

Is there any influence if this Office add-in value “disappears” from registry?
What's your purpose of using this script? Is there any restrictions for this script?

I noticed you just change enabled=0 to disable Office container, what about changing other ODFC registry values one by one to see which value has conflict with the Office add-in script? For instance: "IncludeOutlook" =1; "IncludeOfficeFileCache"=1
