I have deployed Azure Virtual Desktop to 1400+ machines of which the Icon isn't on the desktop through SCCM.

I have been asked whether we can have the icon now on the desktop and if possible name it to something we like as with the install of AVD it is just "Remote Desktop" which management would prefer it being called something else.

Is this possible? If so how would be best to do this?

    If your devices are domain joined I would just use Group Policy Preferences, unless you can't for some reason.

    Hi @Mark ,

    Yes, it is possible. There are some steps to achieve it.

    Step 1, Please find the path of Azure Virtual Desktop on the side of client, and then create shortcut and rename it as 'Remote Desktop', and copy it to shared path.

    Step 2, And deploy the package using sccm with the following cmd:
    xcopy <shared path( shortcut of Azure Virtual Desktop)> <C:\Users\Public\Desktop>

    For example: xcopy \d\amanday\ C:\Users\Public\Desktop
