    You're currently hitting the limitation of Windows Virtual Desktop. where a user cannot be part of Remote Desktop AppGroup and RemoteApp AppGroup within the same host Pools.

     

    To work around you can create another set of Host Pool and then create RemoteApp AppGroup in tha host pool and assign that to the same original user.

     

    WVD team knows about this limitation and you can upvote this feature on uservoice NKUGAN

      AquibQureshi I tested with your solution previously it works but creating a new host pool need to add VMs, when it comes to OPEX with a business requirement we looking at one host pool need apps and Desktop users.

       

      I think this feature not available with WVD

       

      Anyway thanks for your prompt.
