Hi,

We had a Windows 11 PC, and needed to activate RDP for multiple users. Is there any way or do we need to purchase a license?

Thanks

    Hi @Shabin Suresh ,

    which version of Windows 11 are you running?
    Windows 11 Pro allows only one RDP session at the same time.

    There is a Windows 11 version available supporting RDP multi-session. But as far as I know this is limited to use in Azure Virtual Desktop scenarios (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/windows-10-multisession-faq#can-i-run-windows-10-or-windows-11-enterprise-multi-session-outside-of-the-azure-virtual-desktop-service).

    If you search the internet you will find some "tweaks" around the termsrv.dll to enable RDP multi-session in Windows 11. But I doubt this is a supported option at Microsoft.

    (If the reply was helpful please don't forget to upvote and/or accept as answer, thank you)
