Memory leak in Remote Desktop version 1.2.5559.0 (x64) and a few versions back
Microsoft Remote Desktop has a memory leak. This started a few versions back; I thought maybe it would be fixed in succeeding versions, but it has not. You can watch with Task Manager and see it slow...

Confirmed.
My original problem was that the client did not reconnect, then I opened the task manager and saw that there are multiple Remote desktop subprocesses running. I killed them then I could re-connect.
Another problem is that sometimes the connection freeze for a couple of seconds if I put the session to the tray.
After all, is started to looking for a newer version but seems we are in latest. Then I found this post for this given version 1.2.5559.0 (x64) and checked this memory leak problem. I can see that the memory consumption creeps slowly up.
We run this client in:
OS Name: Microsoft Windows 11 Business
OS Version: 10.0.22631 N/A Build 22631
OS Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation
