What exactly does "Power BI Desktop is fully supported on Azure Virtual Desktop" mean? Is there now a different client to use for that enviornment, should it be via .msix app attach, will any old version work etc..
We've been running it in AVD for over a year now and in a full desktop environment it's fine. Slow to open but still works reliably well. As an attached app it's much more buggy compared to things like Tabular Editor that just work.
