In Azure Virtual Desktop, you can configure the remote desktop session host to prompt users to sign in again when they open a new session or when they close their current session. This can be done using the following steps:
1. In the Azure portal, navigate to the Virtual Desktop service that you want to configure.
2. Under "Settings," select "Session Hosts."
3. Select the session host pool that you want to configure.
4. Under "Authentication," select "Prompt for credentials on new connection." This will prompt users to enter their credentials when they start a new session.
5. Under "Authentication," select "Prompt for credentials on reconnection." This will prompt users to enter their credentials when they reconnect to a disconnected session.
6. (Optional) If you want the user to sign-out and close the current subscription when closing the current session: Under "Session" select the "End session" and select "Sign-out"
Note that this configuration can also be done via PowerShell script and azure API, Also this configuration is valid for the entire session host pool, so all users in the session host pool will be prompted for credentials when they start a new session or reconnect to a disconnected session.

- Thank you for the response! But we have Windows365 instead of AVD..so no session hosts for us..
