I followed the steps outlined in the attached Microsoft article, but I was unable to view the application on the AVD client machine at user login, even though it was published via MSIX App Attach.
I tried attaching the application using both MSIX App Attach and App Attach, but I still couldn't achieve the expected result.
I followed the instructions from this document: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/app-attach-setup?tabs=portal&pivots=msix-app-attach. Is there something I might have missed?

Thank you for reaching out with your query on Microsoft Learn Q&A
Do you have all the pre-reqs in place? Also, ensured that the MSIX packaged application has been associated with the app group and user assignment has been configured correctly.?

Ensure that your session hosts have the necessary access to the file share containing your MSIX images. I think you can use PsExec to validate this. -

Thank you for your response.
Yes, I have followed all the prerequisites outlined in the article. I was able to attach the app using App Attach without any issues. However, I am unable to view the application when logging into the AVD client.

Is the MSIX package valid without app attach? This requires deeper troubleshooting over a remote session. I would recommend reaching out to technical support by creating a support ticket with Azure VM team. If you don't have an active support plan, let me know.
