I am testing Windows 10 Multi-user as a possible solution, but I am only able to get up to 2 concurrent sessions. I have increased the size of the VM to up to 4 times larger (vCPU and RAM) with no positive effect.
What I'm specifically looking for is up to 5 simultaneous users logged in on a single VM. Everything I read indicates that this is possible, but so far I have not been able to prove this true.
Suggestions?

2022-08-03T19:31:23.357+00:00 This isn't exactly relevant to the Multi-User edition. I'm in the process of trying Windows 11 Multi-User to see if the behavior is the same.

2022-08-03T20:33:00.853+00:00 Yes. No matter how I increased the size of the VM, I could never get more than 2 connections. I just created a Windows 11 multi-user and was able to get 10 connections with a rather small VM. Something just didn't work as expected with Win10.

2022-08-03T21:07:30.18+00:00 It seems to be more related to using the public IP address rather than the OS itself. I didn't test Windows 10, but when using 11 and the private IP, I could create up to 10 sessions. When using the public IP, only 2. I can only assume that this would be the same result with Windows 10.

2022-08-04T12:28:08.633+00:00 The problem I was having was due to using RDCMan and having the "connect to console" option checked for all users. Once I unchecked this, all was well.
