Description

The Disable-RDVirtualDesktopADMachineAccountReuse cmdlet prevents the Remote Desktop Connection Broker (RD Connection Broker) server from reusing existing Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) computer accounts when you create new virtual desktops in a managed virtual desktop collection. After you run this cmdlet, the RD Connection Broker server returns an error if it identifies existing AD computer accounts when you create new virtual desktop accounts.
