This paragraph needs updating #87295

Section: Why do my apps disappear after I sign out? This happens because you're using Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session with a profile management solution like FSLogix. Your admin or profile solution configured your system to delete user profiles when users sign out. This configuration means that when your system deletes your user profile after you sign out, it also removes any apps you installed during your session. If you want to keep the apps you installed, you'll need to ask your admin to provision these apps for all users in your Azure Virtual Desktop environment.

Update(s) which I believe should be added (note: I am the FSLogix Technical Advisor in CSS): FSLogix does not configure the system to delete profiles when the user logs out. We do have options to clean up some of our cache files, etc. but that has no influence on this issue. There are RDP, Roaming profile, Citrix, and VMWare options to delete/clean up profiles when the user logs off. And these options must be disabled if using FSLogix profiles. Otherwise there is a high chance that these delete routines will delete some of the information in the FSLogix profile container and corrupt the profile making it unusable. Now I do believe it is best to provision apps for all users in an environment, especially Store/UWP/AppX/Modern/Metro apps. Because these apps were not developed to roam with the profile properly (part of the app/config is on the machine and part is in the profile). So when a profile comes to a machine which does not have the same set of Store/UWP/AppX/Modern/Metro apps as the profile which is logging on, it typically causes issues, most commonly a black screen for a period of time at logon, and also the AppReadiness service will try to fix the apps and consume time and CPU which contribute to the black screen.
