I’ve a game computer based on W11. I do play through my portable using sunhine-moonlight (S-M) and experience is great. Daughter wants to play games as well. My think is to create a second account on W11 and setup a S-M connection from her own portable. Issue is that I can’t get both of us connected to the W11 machine. As soon as one of us connects, the other disconnects.Not sure whether this is a W11 setup issue or S-M related. Any experience/success?

      Thanks. Looks like the issue is windows related, more specifically Microsoft related. From the link you provided:

      The number of concurrent RDP connections on Windows is actually a license limitation. Microsoft prohibits the creation of a workstation-based Terminal RDP server for multiple users to work simultaneously.

      I’ll try the solution from there this WE, although not very confident it will work due to the above mentioned limitation.

        That same link shows you how to get away with it anyways.

    My first thought is that’s a windows related problem. Depending on your specific windows edition, it is not possible to log in multiple accounts at the same time. Microsoft earns a lot of money for this feature as they get paid for user- or computer-CALs, which are licenses that allow an amount of users or machines to access a single so called terminal server. Correct me if I am wrong, but the sunshine/moonlight setup seems to use RDP (never actually checked on that, because I was just happy that it works). So if that’s the case, then there unfortunately is no easy solution for your idea.

      I am just a little brainstorming right now, but…

      If you are a bit tech-talented and your computer is powerful enough, you might be able to change your home PC to a hyper-V „server“. So that means you set up windows (I think you need at least a pro edition), then you activate the hyper-V role. Once done you can now set up two more virtual windows PCs running on the hyper-V Host system you just created. Each one of you can use one of them with their own moonlight-sunshine connection.
