We will be setting up a VM on Hyper-V (running on Windows Server 2021r2) that will be running either Windows 10 or 11 pro. Multiple users (3 total) will need to access that VM simultaneously via Remote Desktop. Each user will have their own unique session. I'm assuming each user will need to have their own license.

Is this possible?

    That isn't going to work with a desktop OS. Either stand up three of them or user a server OS for the remote desktop.
