I wonder if 2 users can use a single Windows machine with different GUI sessions remotely. For example, user A login to the machine and do his web browsing and at the same time user B login and do his tasks. If it is possible, how to set up the Windows machine this way? Thank you.

Only one user can use a Windows workstation locally. Two (or more) users can be logged in and you can switch users. That works fine. But only one user at a time.
Remote tools normally log the user out
No, it is not possible. This is only available in Windows Server

Can you clarify? I am doing a pen-testing session and I really need this feature.– BenassinMay 2, 2020 at 14:10

You can log in remotely as the same user using proper tools, but not two users.– JohnMay 2, 2020 at 14:14
