RDSH contains session-based sharing capabilities that allow multiple users to access desktops and applications simultaneously on a single instance of Windows Server.

Process of deploying RDS service roles

1.       Open Server Manager.

2.       Click Manage and select Add Roles and Features.

3.       Select Role-based or Feature-based installation.

4.       Select the computer as the destination server.

5.       On the Select server roles page, select Remote Desktop Services.

Using RDP is somewhat like that: the user's mouse movements and keystrokes are transmitted to their desktop computer remotely, but over the Internet instead of over radio waves. The user's desktop is displayed on the computer they are connecting from, just as if they were sitting in front of it.

Remote desktop services (RDS) and remote desktop protocol (RDP) are two terms that are often used interchangeably. However, they are not the same thing. RDP is a protocol that allows users to connect to a remote desktop, while RDS is a suite of tools that enables remote access to desktops and applications.

Office 2021 Standard for Mac gives you the essentials to get it all done with the classic versions of the Office applications. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook have the familiar look and feel of Office, thoughtfully designed for Mac. Office LTSC is the latest perpetual version of Microsoft 365 for commercial and government customers, a device-based license available as a one-time, “perpetual” purchase, available on both platforms (Windows and Mac).

This means that when you purchased your computer your computer manufacturer put on the OEM copy of Windows 10. Via Microsoft licensing rights, OEM registers to the motherboard and when you change that piece of hardware you need to purchase a new retail version of Microsoft Windows 10.

The minimum space requirement for installing Windows 10 on a 32-bit system is 16 GB and for a 64-bit system, it is 20 GB. However, it is recommended to have at least 32 GB or more of free disk space on your computer to ensure that it runs smoothly and to provide enough space for your personal files and applications.

an OEM license key is tied to the original hardware it was activated on, specifically the motherboard. This means that if you replace your motherboard, your OEM license key may no longer be valid, and you may need to purchase a new license.
