After provisioning, can software (such as .msi installers created using InstallShield, Wix Toolset etc) be installed on a Windows 365 Cloud PC? I assume that any software installable on a standard Windows 10 or 11 machine will also work on a Windows 365 Cloud PC. Please clarify if this assumption is incorrect.

Windows 365 Enterprise
Windows 365 Business

    @snr_g, Thanks for posting in Q&A. Yes, you can install software on a Windows 365 Cloud PC just as you would on a standard Windows 10 or 11 machine. This includes .msi installers.

    We can download and install applications from the web or the Microsoft Store on their Cloud PCs. Some applications may require administrator privileges, so ensure you have the necessary permissions

    Hope the above information can help.
