    Windows Insider podcast EP45 – Designing for a Billion Guests: Sheetal Agarwal, Hanna McLaughlin Windows Insider podcast -- Episode 45 – Designing for a Billion Jason Howard (host), Sheetal Agarwal, Principal Design Research Lead (guest) Hanna McLaughlin, Senior Design Lead (guest) [Music] JASON HOWARD: Welcome to the Windows Insider Podcast, where leaders from Microsoft and Windows Insiders discuss tech trends, careers, and innovation. I'm your host, Jason Howard. This is Episode 45, Designing for a Billion But first, if you're not yet a Windows Insider, head over to our website, insider.windows.com and register for free. Insiders get access to upcoming Windows features before they're released to the public, plus exclusive opportunities to experience all Microsoft has to offer. As we get started with this episode, take a moment to think about the concept of “a billion”. It’s a big number, but can we really conceptualize how big it is? One of the largest sports stadiums in the world holds approximately 130,000 people. It would take nearly 7,700 copies of that stadium to hold a billion people! Keeping that in mind, how does one design an operating system that will be used on over a billion devices? Where should the design begin? What’s the right way to make it work? Who makes the decisions on what it should look like? There’s a lot that goes into the decision-making process, especially with such a large visual rejuvenation across so much of the operating system! And with the first preview build of Windows 11 out the door to Windows Insiders, joining us today to talk about these changes are Sheetal Agarwal, Principal Design Research Lead and Hanna McLaughlin, Senior Design Lead.

  • Optimizing Windows 10, Build 2004, for a Virtual Desktop Role
    Optimizing Windows 10, Build 2004, for a Virtual Desktop role Written by Robert M. Smith, Program Manager, Azure Global Customer Engineering Date Created: May 12, 2020 Date Updated: July 08, 2020 Date Published: tbd Contributors: Tim Muessig, Senior Premier Field Engineer; Narklis Engler, Principal Program Manager Version 1.2 Document Change History Version Changes 1.0 Adding verbiage for Windows Virtual Desktop, and Windows 10 build 2004 specifically 1.1 Additional updates for 2004 1.2 Final pass, updated group policy, services, tasks, and added info about Storage Sense for disk cleanup. Introduction This article is intended to provide suggestions for configurations for Windows 10, build 2004, for optimal performance in Virtualized Desktop environments, including Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD). All settings in this guide are suggested optimization settings only and are in no way requirements. The information in this guide is pertinent to Windows 10, version 2004, operating system (OS) build 19041. The guiding principles to optimize performance of Windows 10 in a virtual desktop environment are to minimize graphic redraws and “effects”, background activities that have no major benefit to the virtual desktop environment, and generally reduce running processes to the bare minimum. A secondary goal is to reduce disk space usage in the base image to the bare minimum. With virtual desktop implementations, the smallest possible base, or “gold” image size, can slightly reduce memory utilization on the host system, as well as a small reduction in overall network operations required to deliver the desktop environment to the consumer. No optimizations should reduce the user experience.
