I have a dedicated server with Windows server 2019 Data Center edition.
The Datacenter Edition provides rights for unlimited Operating System Environments or Windows Servers containers with Hyper-V isolation when all physical cores in the server are licensed.
AVMA keys can be used only when the host is DataCenter edition
Is there any licensing for Windows 10 for unlimited Operating System Environments or Windows Servers containers with Hyper-V?

Sorry, but no there is not. Read on here about licensing a desktop OS in a virtual environment.

Patrick,
I just checked the document. Let me explain my requirements.
I have a dedicated server and installed hyper-v roles, Currently, I have a windows datacenter license on the dedicated server, in which I can create unlimited users and enable a guest windows server license.
My main concern is If there is no Licensing like the data center edition for Windows 10, Is there any other solution I can create VM and install the desktop OS on the server.
I need a solution like a virtual desktop.

Vishal G.
