Kesavan Munuswamy Hi, unfortunately you cannot re-assign a host to a user. The quickest way to do this is to delete the existing host and just add in another one.

If you don't want to remove and re-deploy you can re-install the wvd broker agent on the VM using the following steps

1) Remove the host from the pool
2) RDP onto the VM and uninstall the WVD Broker Agent
3) Generate a new token from the portal
4) Re-install the agent using the token
5) Assign the host to the user

Hope that helps!

This worked for me.

1) Remove the host from the pool
2) Generate new token
3) HKLM\Software\Microsoft\RDInfraAgent --> Enter new token in "RegistrationToken"
4) HKLM\Software\Microsoft\RDInfraAgent --> Set "IsRegistered" to "0".

5) Reboot the session host

6) Assign the host to the user

It will probably work without reboot if you restart the correct services.
