Recently the giant detected a problem affecting Remote Desktop (remote desktop). The app no ​​longer works following the installation of Windows 11 2022 Update is complete. This failure only occurs if the connection relies on the Remote Desktop Gateway or a Remote Desktop Connection Broker. As a result, the probability that the general public will be strongly impacted is low. This also means that this bug mainly concerns professionals and companies.
