 # Apply Windows license to session host virtual machines
 
 Customers who are properly licensed to run Azure Virtual Desktop workloads are eligible to apply a Windows license to their session host virtual machines and run them without paying for another license. For more information, see [Azure Virtual Desktop pricing](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/virtual-desktop/).
 
-## Ways to use your Azure Virtual Desktop license
-Azure Virtual Desktop licensing allows you to apply a license to any Windows or Windows Server virtual machine that is registered as a session host in a host pool and receives user connections. This license does not apply to virtual machines that are running as file share servers, domain controllers, and so on.
+## Ways to apply an Azure Virtual Desktop license
 
-There are a few ways to use the Azure Virtual Desktop license:
-- You can create a host pool and its session host virtual machines using the [Azure Marketplace offering](./create-host-pools-azure-marketplace.md). Virtual machines created this way automatically have the license applied.
-- You can create a host pool and its session host virtual machines using the [GitHub Azure Resource Manager template](https://github.com/Azure/RDS-Templates/tree/master/ARM-wvd-templates). Virtual machines created this way automatically have the license applied.
-- You can apply a license to an existing session host virtual machine. To do this, first follow the instructions in [Create a host pool with PowerShell or the Azure CLI](./create-host-pools-powershell.md) to create a host pool and associated VMs, then return to this article to learn how to apply the license.

 ## Requirements for deploying Windows Server Remote Desktop Services
 
 If you deploy Windows Server as Azure Virtual Desktop hosts in your deployment, a Remote Desktop Services license server must be accessible from those virtual machines. The Remote Desktop Services license server can be located on-premises or in Azure. For more information, see [Activate the Remote Desktop Services license server](/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/rds-activate-license-server).

+## Known limitations
+
+If you create a Windows Server VM using the Azure Virtual Desktop host pool creation process, the process might automatically assign it an incorrect license type. To change the license type using PowerShell, follow the instructions in [Convert an existing VM using Azure Hybrid Benefit for Windows Server](../virtual-machines/windows/hybrid-use-benefit-licensing.md#powershell-1).
