Each host pool has a preferred app group type that dictates whether users see RemoteApp or Desktop apps in their feed if both resources have been published to the same user. By default, Azure Virtual Desktop automatically creates a Desktop app group named "Desktop Application Group" whenever you create a host pool and sets the host pool's preferred app group type to **Desktop**. You can remove the Desktop app group at any time. If you want your users to only see RemoteApps in their feed, you should set the **Preferred App Group Type** value to **RemoteApp**. You can't create another Desktop app group in the host pool while a Desktop app group exists.

Pooled host pools have a preferred app group type that dictates whether users see RemoteApp or Desktop apps in their feed if both resources have been published to the same user. By default, Azure Virtual Desktop automatically creates a Desktop app group with the friendly name **Default Desktop**whenever you create a host pool and sets the host pool's preferred app group type to **Desktop**. You can remove the Desktop app group at any time. If you want your users to only see RemoteApps in their feed, you should set the **Application group type** value to **RemoteApp**. You can't create another Desktop app group in a host pool while a Desktop app group exists.
