Two different version of the Remote desktop Client for Windows. Which one to use?

Copper Contributor

Noticed on the website for Remote Desktop Client, there are two different versions for windows. One from the store and the other is downloadable.

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-deskto... 

 

It seems that to desktop app (not the store one), supports local drive redirection.  

 

Any suggestions?

Basicly you need to see what the options are per type of WVD client and see what fits your users. It could be that you need to use different kind of WVD client to fit the needs of your users.
Use the Client that has regular updates 😉

@itahmed Check out the links below for a feature comparison:

The Windows Desktop client has the most features and is updated frequently.  I would lean towards that client if possible.
