Hi,
I have a business wanting to change their server setup. Right now I have it so they each use RDP to connect to the server with their own user login. Which works fine by the way. They about 25 employees (25 workstations). What they don't like about it is one user installs a program and it is applied to all other users on the server. Another being the UI difference from a standard Windows 10 installation (e.g. they see the server tools in the start menu etc...). So they want me to "fix it".
My thoughts are running Virtual Machines with standard Windows 10 for each user on the server instead. Then they can each install whatever they want without effecting one another, and won't tell the difference from their own workstation. But still be running off the server. What I'm stuck on is the best way to implement this. So if anyone here has experience doing it I'd appreciate any feedback on the methods you used. We are trying to keep it simple, and cost effective. So if it could be achieved on the one server they already have that would be ideal.
Thanks,
Derek R.
