How to Set the RDP limit on Windows Server. Sometimes users who use the Windows Virtual Server may encounter the problem of limiting the number of remote desktops. In this article, we will teach you how to set the remote desktop limit in Windows Server.
Remote Desktop in Windows Server is set to 1 remote desktop at the same time by default. So you will not be able to connect multiple remotes to your server. In the rest of this tutorial, we will point out a way that you will be able to enable 999999 remote access permissions for your server.
Note: Remote Desktop will take up space of RAM and server processor per session. If you need a very large number of remote desktops, your server should have good RAM and processor.
