How to display of the VM via Bastion to fill the browser page?

Loïc Mouchard 5

When connecting a VM via Bastion on Firefox, the desktop of the VM is displayed so small you can barely see it and it is completely unusable. I get it since yesterday, before the complete browser was used to display the VM.

User's image I guess this is due to the new version of Firefox 134.0 (64-bit), as it was released/installed few days ago.

On Chrome, this issue does not occur.

@Loïc Mouchard ,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & I hope you are doing well.

As mentioned by Abiola Akinbade, I see the recommended browsers are Microsoft Edge browser or Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge Chromium.

I suggest you follow the FAQ Guidelines and switch to above browsers

Moreover, I can note that the browser you are using is not Chromium based - as opposed to the ones mentioned in the FAQ

Kindly let us know if this helps or you need further assistance on this issue.

Thanks,

Kapil

Hello Loïc Mouchard,

Thanks for your question.

Yes, it may be due to the version/type of your browser.

I would recommend you use Edge or chrome as in the supported browsers, Firefox is not mentioned. See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bastion/bastion-faq#browsers

The browser must support HTML 5. Use the Microsoft Edge browser or Google Chrome on Windows. For Apple Mac, use Google Chrome browser. Microsoft Edge Chromium is also supported on both Windows and Mac, respectively.

I have ran into the same issue. This is not an acceptable.

Edge is a terrible browser and many people prefer to avoid CHROME if possible.

I'm also having the same problem. I've been using Firefox without issue up until yesterday.

This isn't a "Firefox is not supported" issue. Firefox obviously supports HTML5 and is widely used with Azure.

Something broke yesterday. Whether it was Mozilla or Microsoft, I'm not sure.
