Remote Desktop not working in Admin Center

Setup a test of the Windows Admin Center, the only thing I cant seem to get to work is the Remote Desktop tab. I just get the spinning dots and errors in the console, which I have attached. Any Ideas...

    I could fix this problem by enabling "Allow users to connect remotely by using Remote Desktop Services" policy settings (gpedit.msc or gpo). This policy add fDenyConnection=0 value to "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services", so $resgistryKey never set to null.

I've noticed a few problems with this... particularly with Chrome. As of Chrome 70, it's working perfectly for me, but if you're still on older release, there's a lot of known issues with it. Any extra details you can provide might be helpful here...

    Updated to the latest Chrome Version 70.0.3538.77 and still having the same issue. The problem also happens in other browsers like Edge.

      I just stood up admin center as well and am having the same exact issue with remote desktop.  I've tried to connect to multiple different server using edge, chrome, firefox... remote desktop just 'spins'.  Never connects.  Everything else seems to be working.

      Admin center installed on 2019 server....attempting to remote desktop to 2019, 2016, 2012 servers.  None work.

        Are you getting the same errors in your developer console?
