Windows 11 Virtual Desktop Optimizations

Avatar

NMM and NME both have Virtual Desktop Optimizations for different versions of Windows 10:

However, neither has Virtual Desktop Optimizations for any version of Windows 11.
1) Can Nerdio include / create VDO for Windows 11?

2) The VDO looks to be the same thing as the Windows Virtual Desktop Optimization Tool (VDOT) at https://github.com/The-Virtual-Desktop-Team/Virtual-Desktop-Optimization-Tool?tab=readme-ov-file.

3) It looks like the only difference between The VDO (1909), VDO (2004) and VDO (20H2) is the numbers of the version, the addition of a couple of services to disable and the names of reg keys and folders. Seems like we might be able to clone the 20H2 for Windows 10 and change “Windows 10” to “Windows 11” and 20H2 to 21H2 (there wasn't a Win11 20H2) then clone that to make optimizations for 22H2, 23H2, 24H2 and 25H2.

We are in the process of migrating to Windows 11 and was suprised to find this as well. Windows 10 date is quickly approaching. What would it take for the Nerdio team to roll these scripts out for 11?

I'm interested in a Windows 11 optimization script as well.  Any updates on the feature request?

I know this is a pretty popular request.

Until we are able to get it in-product, we do have this VDOT-Optimizations script, on our NMM Sales Engineering GitHub repo, that automatically downloads the latest version of the VDOT script, extracts the files, unblocks the files, and passes the arguments from the Inherited Variables so if one customer needs different arguments, you can do those on the fly without needing multiple versions of your script.

The only major requirement is to make sure you have the 3 inherited variables (VDOTopt, VDOTadvopt, and VDOTrestart) created at the MSP level before you try to run this script on your Desktop Images/Session Hosts.

Do you think that'll work for what you're needing/wanting?
