Windows 365 is Microsoft’s cloud-based PC service built on its cloud computing platform, enabling the creation of multiple Windows virtual machines on remote servers. Users can connect to these virtual machines via Remote Desktop or similar protocols, allowing them to perform daily tasks, including office work, entirely in the cloud.
Now, Microsoft has introduced Windows 365 Reserve, a new standalone product line designed to ensure uninterrupted workflows by providing cloud PC access in the event of a primary device failure.
According to Microsoft, Windows 365 Reserve can offer up to 10 days of usage per year. For instance, if a company experiences a wave of PC failures, IT administrators can quickly deploy preconfigured cloud PCs loaded with all the necessary applications and settings. This allows employees to continue their work seamlessly while the IT team resolves hardware issues.
Of course, connecting to a cloud PC still requires physical hardware—such as a thin client or any device capable of running the Windows RDP protocol, whether it be a desktop, laptop, or mobile device.
The feature is currently in a closed public preview, and interested enterprises are encouraged to contact their Microsoft support representatives to participate in testing. Notably, this offering is exclusive to business customers and is not available for personal or home use.
Moreover, for individuals or households with spare devices capable of RDP connections, it’s often easier to use backup hardware directly rather than rely on a service like Windows 365 Reserve—making its practical value for non-enterprise users relatively limited.
