#SETUP MICROSOFT RDP CLIENT FOR MAC FOR MAC#
The Microsoft Remote Desktop app for Mac available in the Mac App Store and it supports connecting to desktops, remote resources and Azure RemoteApp.

Use the Beta app Help->Report an issue option to share your feedback about the keyboard. The Beta app will continue to support both Command X/C/V and Ctrl X/C/V to copy and paste between the local desktop and remote session. The Beta app initially used a new implementation of the keyboard however, many of you reported that this new keyboard introduced several issues with typing into apps like the Hyper-v console and typing certain language characters. We’ve changed how the Beta app keyboard works to behave exactly like the Remote Desktop client store app. In addition to supporting copy/paste of text and images, the preview app now supports copy/paste of files so that you can transfer files into and out of the remote session using both Command X/C/V and CTRL X/C/V. You can enable multiple monitors for a desktop connection from the additional options. The preview app now supports the ability to use multiple monitors in your remote session.

But this is macos limitation.Microsoft yesterday released an update for Remote Desktop client preview app for Mac with many new features like Multiple monitor support, Copy and Paste files support and more.

Also annoying is that control left/right arrow to move cursor is not possible as macos intercepts it for switching between full screen apps. No stars off from this, but it would be nice if modifier key remapping was possible, as control/option/start button/alt are in annoying places. Probably also due to the scaling is image being blurry in some cases. Sometimes DPI is messed up and Windows target shows massive fonts, but if I exit and re-enter full screen it will resolve. I suspect this is the issue with the slowness, that both sides cannot agree consistently on DPI and resolution settings so there is a lot of scaling going on on both sides. Setting up resolution too a lot of manipulating with choosing "optimize for retina" vs. All 3 are using 4k resolution (at 4k though even Windows RDP client has some noticeable lag but nothing compared to macos RDP client).

Using Windows 10 RDP client to same Windows 10 target on same network is dramatically faster. Connecting to a local Windows 10 machine over 1 gbps Ethernet has very noticeable lag and low framerate. MacOS version works but has horrible peformance compared to the Windows version. Also, while I appreciate the option that allows the Apple key to be interchangable with ctrl for edit operations and find, it doesn't seem to work consistently, and as everyone who has ever switched back and forth between the Mac and Windows knows, confusion over which meta key to use in editing will eventually cause brain damage and is likely to send hardware on ballistic journeys through windows (not Windows). So properly-speaking, this probably a complaint about the service and not the client app, but the entire eco-system is failing me in small ways. Now, I'm sure there really IS such a way, but the internet is not my friend in helping me find it.

Since there are some operations that cannot be performed via RDP - attaching to a VPN being one of them - it would be nice if I could just leave the PC logged in and operate it via Remote Desktop at the same time. This works reasonable well except that the Remote Desktop Service on the PC requires that I can only be logged in either via the Remote Desktop app OR the PC itself. I don't want to keep changing physical keyboards, so despite the fact that the two physical machines are next to eachother beneath my desk, I use remote desktop to view and operate the PC while working on the Mac. I have a specific usage case - I work in a multiplatform environment in which I work on the Mac and on the PC.
