Hi JS , thanks for responding. Sorry for the delay I did not get the notification.
- iMac 2017, Big Sur 11.6.2 (which is intel), 32GB ram
- Running main iMac monitor + 2 external monitors (connected over USB-C to DVI adapters
- 2048x1152 resolution on iMac monitor and 1920x1080 on the 2 externals
- External keyboard and mouse connected to the machine over USB
- Remoting into a windows 10 Pro workstation
- Delete all MS remote desktops installed on your machine using Apple menu > about this mac > storage > manage > application > highlight and delete any MS remote desktop (I only ever have 1 version installed)
- Install the 10.7.4 from the app store; edit connection > general, bypass local addresses=true; display > use all monitors=true, fit session=true, 32bit color; devices and audio > clipboard=true; folder > redirect folder=true but nothing setup for redirection. Every other setting is off under the VM edit screen/tabs. Under Preferences have the following
- Using AD authentication (domain\...) and a gateway
- Connect to my VM - slow, slow, slow
- Now delete 10.7.4 using method described above.
- install 10.7.3 from https://install.appcenter.ms/orgs/rdmacios-k2vy/apps/microsoft-remote-desktop-for-mac/distribution_groups/all-users-of-microsoft-remote-desktop-for-mac
- Use the exact same setting and preferences as described above > connect to my VM > its fast!
