    Hello,

    This message is caused by the soft enforcement licensing feature, soft enforcement allows the user to connect for 60 minutes at a time.

    Step1:

    To configure the license for remote desktop, you may first decide which type of RDS CAL is more suitable for your case:
    There are two types of RDS CALs:

    • RDS Per Device CALs
    • RDS Per User CALs

    Please refer to License your RDS deployment with client access licenses (CALs) | Microsoft Learn to understand the RDS CAL model.

    Step2:

    After installing the license server role, you need to activate it: Activate the Remote Desktop Services license server | Microsoft Learn

    Step3:

    Then you can install RDS CAL: Install RDS client access licenses | Microsoft Learn.

    Step4:

    If you have connection broker role, you can configure the license mode and specify server address on the broker, otherwise you can set it up in the group policy. See more configuration details: Cannot connect to RDS because no RD Licensing servers are available - Windows Server | Microsoft Learn

    Reference:

    Your session will be disconnected in 60 minutes message when you connect to RDS - Windows Server | Microsoft Learn

    Best regards,

    Karlie
