Hi, I am following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/devices/howto-vm-sign-in-azure-ad-windows guide to enable Azure AD connection towards arm64 based Windows11 machine. However, I am receiving errors. Is this feature not supported for arm64 Windows?

$ az vm extension set \
    --publisher Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory \
    --name AADLoginForWindows \
    --resource-group rg-lz-perflibs-ci-prd-neu-001 \
    --vm-name WoA64-devops-fatonu01-test01

@Fatih Onur Thank you for reaching out to us, As I understand you are trying to install extension for AADLoginforWindows, this is pre-reqs to have on the vm - You must enable system-assigned managed identity on your virtual machine before you install the Azure AD login VM extension. Do you have this option enabled on the VM ?

Let me know if you have any further questions, feel free to post back.

Thanks for your answer Givary. Indeed, I did. However, according to the error message that I shared above, arm64 architecture seems not supported yet. Can you confirm the same?

I also received the following message from another channel.

The Windows 11 Preview ARM64 image is a preview image and is not supported with the AAD login extension.

This version of Windows 11 offers an opportunity to test and validate new pre-release functionality in the Azure environment. You must have an eligible Windows 11 license with multi-tenant license rights to create and use virtual machine images from this software and by using this software you agree that the following additional terms and limitations apply: (i) this software is licensed for use only in a virtual machine running on Azure; (ii) this software contains preview components which may not be used in a production environment; may not operate correctly; and may be different from a commercially released version; (iii) this software is provided “as-is” and without warranties, users bear the risk of using these preview components and are responsible for installing any updates that may be made available as long as this software is available for use. This software may be removed or replaced at any time without notice. If creating virtual machine images via script, always specify the version as “latest”. Refer to the Windows content page on Marketplace for a complete list of released Windows products.

In repro testing this fails immediately when adding to an existing vm and using the Azure CLI. There are no logs generated on the VM for the extension since it doesn't even attempt to install the extension since is doesn't exist for the ARM64 architecture.
