Windows 11 25H2 custom group does not see in Users or Built-in security principals

ITNOA

 

Hi,

 

I have Windows 11 25H2 Enterprise and I want to have a custom group with multiple local users, that every users in this group can remote login to this Windows, But I cannot add this group into Remote Desktop Users (System->Remote Desktop)

And another problem, that is when I add my custom group to Remote Desktop Users group in lusrmgr.msc , my users in custom group, does not have any rights to remote login

    Simply adding a local group to Remote Desktop Users in lusrmgr.msc should grant remote login rights.

    Remote Desktop permissions are controlled by the Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services policy.

    This policy is often set via Group Policy and may not automatically include custom groups created in lusrmgr.msc.

    Adding a group to "Remote Desktop Users" in lusrmgr.msc should grant RDP access, but sometimes policies override this, or the group isn't recognized properly.
