We are investigating an issue affecting access to the ACE, Mechanical Engineering, and Chemical Engineering virtual desktop services.
Users are currently unable to connect because the required cloud computing capacity is unavailable.
We are working with Microsoft to restore access as soon as possible. We apologise for the disruption and will provide further updates when more information becomes available.
