Thanks for all the feedback. We’re working hard to make this app great!

Ratings and Reviews

Good, but not perfect

It mostly does what it says on the tin. However, there should be a way of toggling between the keyboard effecting only the remote desktop and the machine (a mac here) that your remoting via. Currently too many shortcut keys, shuch as closing a window instead of closing the remoted software’s window closing the whole Remote Desktop App. Then you have to log back in after which it takes 10 mins or so for video editing software to get audio sync back. This will happen quite often as it’s very difficult to not use those shortcuts that you’ve been using for 20 years. Also the software gets cofused when using keys such as Control, thinking youspeaking to the remote PC rather than the software on that PC. ‘In the flesh’ this confusion doesn’t happen, so it’s definately something to do with the remote software. But those quite annoying problems aside it does the job.

Excellent

The devs do a great job with this app. Regularly updating. Without it, I very likely would have a different OS installed instead of Windows 10!

One small issue — every so often, maybe every 3 — 4 hours (seems to happen randomly but I haven’t timed it), there is a disconnect and auto re-connect. I’m not sure if this is a setting in Windows 10, but when the auto-reconnect kicks in, the Microsoft Remote Desktop window size is wrong. I use NOT full screen, just the window sized to the maximum size of that I can use without full-screening it. When the auto-reconnect kicks in, it’s back to a default small square window in the centre of monitor and I have to double click the titlebar to get it to the full size I want again. Not sure if this is Windows 10 of a bug with the app, but I’m sure it’s probably app-side. Apart from that, great app and bug fixing — very much appreciated folks!

Just too glitchy

The latest version is not nearly as stable as the now-superseded earlier versions, which will not work with MacOS Big Sur. If you are on Catalina, do not upgrade to this. There are too many OS glitches, with the menu bar randomly disappearing from the top of the screen, pointer and screen items misaligning semi-regularly as the window jumps into a slightly incorrect postiion on the screen, but the pointer remains correctly orientated so that they are a few pixels out with each other. Stealing focus across multiple screens, so that all windows activate, rather than simply the screen that you’re working in, meaning that anything running on the native computer gets bumped off of the screen until you minimise windows. Basically, the previous generation of this program worked much better. This does all of the same stuff, but the glitches reduce productivity. If you are running any version of MacOS before Big Sur, avoid it at all costs; if you’re running Bug Sur, sadly you’re stuck with it.

Ratings and Reviews

Fantastic, fast, and smooth from my small use

Had no qualms with the “square logo” version. I used it often, using both Active Directory logins and local logins. Did mass software installs on multiple machines simultaneously all remotely from the app. This one I feel like runs even faster and smoother than the last one! Great job, devs. I also can see on here that the devs are responding to many of the (often unbelievably whiny and uppity) complaints on this review page, often proving the customer wrong or letting them know that their desired feature is forthcoming. Thank you for your dedication, dev team. I feel these guys deserve a 5-star review. The average rating for this app largely seems to be due to customers’ ineptitude or ignorance, so the rating really isn’t fair or telling of the quality of the app.

nearly perfect

I have a specific usage case — I work in a multiplatform environment in which I work on the Mac and on the PC. 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. 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. 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. Now, I’m sure there really IS such a way, but the internet is not my friend in helping me find it. 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. 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).

Current version resets many times a da

Update: latest version now just resets over and over all day. It takes a good 30 seconds and sometimes I have to just disconnect the RDP and reconnect it in order to be able to work again. I really miss the old RDP versions here on the Mac that just worked all day long. I still need this tool every day.

Not sure why you keep breaking a tool that so many rely on daily.

This latest version crashes (on the Mac) if I type too fast in Visual Studio on my Windows Desktop at work. I get the spinning beachball- have to exit to the Mac, force quit MRD and restart it, then reconnect. I’m finding myself doing this at least 2 or 3 times per hour! I try to type slowly, but then end up getting really focused on my work and start moving faster. I use VI so I’m typing everything and it seems to be when I’m repeating an edit over and over that it crashes MRD. This is a Productivity KILLER! Like I said it happens when I’m focused and your bug is a sure way to kill that focus — every time! I wish it were easier to revert to an older version. I was forced to update when I upgraded to Mojave and decided to start clean and re-install everything. This is the only app that makes me regret that decision!! I was on an old stable version and had been refusing to update. Sigh!

Как всегда: сначала выпустят, потом доделают

Меняю свой отзыв, так как починили наконец и прога стала заводиться на 10.11.6.
Отдельное спасибо разработчикам — вышли на связь и мы вместе занялись отладкой 🙂

Changing my review because fixed at last and app became launch on 10.11.6.
Special thanks to Rajaram Shetty and others with whom we began to solve the problem 🙂

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the feedback. Please contact us by mailing rdios@microsoft.com. We want to work with you to diagnose this and get you back on track.

Microsoft’овцы скачали 8Gb данных телеметрии за 2 месяца с моего ноутбука?

В последнее время диск ноутбука стал занят «ничем» процентов на 30%. Решив разобраться с «ничем» я нашел среди них 8Гб данных телеметрии о работе программы и бог знает чего еще. В папке

/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.rdc.macos/Data/Library/Application\ Support/com.microsoft.rdc.macos/.com.microsoft.rdc.application-data_SUPPORT/ лежат тонны зашифрованных файлов вида CD290736-67BF-4A41-92A9-0E1DD493B02 И это при том, что сама программа занимала 17 мегабайт. Алё, уважаемые «разработчики», Вы там ничего не перепутали, не?

Developer Response ,

То, что вы видите, связано с ошибкой в macOS 10.14. Операционная система не удаляла уменьшенные изображения. Это исправлено в macOS 10.14.1. Закройте клиентское приложение удаленного рабочего стола, а затем удалите все файлы в _EXTERNAL_DATA, чтобы освободить место.

BigSur?

На BigSur не работает (вылетает).
Когда пофиксите?
