MacOS - Windows App (remote desktop) - Enable Dynamic Resolution Update

When reconnecting to a full-screen Windows App session after changing displays, the session should automatically adjust to the new screen's resolution.

For example, if you're using an external monitor connected to your M2 MacBook Air (with the laptop lid closed), and you're working on a full-screen Windows App session, then disconnect the external monitor and reconnect to the session, it should adapt to the MacBook Air's screen resolution. However, the session currently reconnects using the previous screen's resolution instead of adjusting to the MacBook Air's resolution and therefore we cannot work.

ChatGPT suggests enabling the "Dynamic Resolution Update" feature, which allows the session to update the resolution automatically upon reconnecting. This option ensures the session matches the current display's resolution. However, it seems this feature may not yet be available for the macOS version of the Remote Desktop app?
