This relates to Microsoft Remote Desktop 10.x for macOS, installed from the App Store. Each time a remote session disconnects (such as on device sleep), an alert pops up over the shaded-out window telling me the session disconnected. The alert offers me no options except to close the alert and the window. This alert communicates information that I don't care to be alerted about, doesn't offer me useful alternatives like reconnecting the session, and its presence blocks certain actions until it is dismissed: this includes quitting the app; or, and this is truly maddening, reconnecting the disconnected session.
I would prefer the window just close when the session disconnects, unless I have enabled the auto-reconnect setting.
Using the OS notification system would be a better option to notify those users who want this information that a session has disconnected: at least those notifications can be configured and disabled per-user.

Looks like this idea didn't get enough votes over the past months to be considered. We are closing this idea.
Still going strong, just shows how little the <company> cares about the usability. If I could I would just which to Linux and give the longest finger statement to the corporate world. But it is not an option in this case.
Yes it is truly annoying
