hello
I'm having trouble understanding RDS licensing for connecting to desktops(not VM's) with windows 7-11.
For what I can find on the internet RDS licenses are needed when connecting to windows server, but not much information about connecting to
windows 7-11 via remote desktop.
My company wants to migrate 50 users to remote work.
Each user is having its own computer in the office, and they are having an Active Directory login as AD users (not administrators).
Do I need any RDS licenses if there will be always max 1 session to 1 desktop and always using the same AD user ?
