    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5623491"&gt;@tedykgb&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/484438"&gt;@fabio1975&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I suspect that Horizon is working as intended.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In other words, I believe the intended behavior is that profiles cannot be maintained after deploying virtual machines in Horizon unless there is a profile management tool available.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Profile management is usually DEM or FSlogix , Roaming User Profile...&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;New to horizon 8.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Have everything set up but my last major hurdle is that if I roll out a new golden image users lose everything on desktop profile they had save prior to roll out.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It acts like it is setting up account for them for the first time again all over.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What did I set up wrong and how do I prevent this.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;HI&lt;BR /&gt;What infrastructure have you implemented for managing user profiles? DEM? AppVolume? FSLogix?&lt;BR /&gt;From what I understand you have implemented an instant clone pool if you don't have systems that save the profile outside the VDI you lose the whole profile. Otherwise you have to make VMs persistent.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/484438"&gt;@fabio1975&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Correct and very clear explanation.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Indeed, for automatic desktop pools, you need a profile management tool.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My response, "it feels like the intended behavior" also assumes that you are using an automated desktop pool.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Well, the advantages of using a manual desktop pool... I'm not sure what you're asking...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you have a small number of users, or if you customize applications for each employee and cannot manage all profiles at once, then a manual desktop pool may be a viable option.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
