Please note that a new service, Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), for CapU employees is now available, and Terminal Services will end on February 1, 2023.

Employees currently using Terminal Services are encouraged to download the new virtual desktop app. Information about the new service is available on the Virtual Desktop page.
