Windows Desktop
2 TopicsWhy is Remote Desktop app from MS Store not aligned with Windows Desktop app releases?
Hi, I recently struggled to login to some new "Azure Virtual Desktop" VMs, using the MS Store version of "Remote desktop". This app is, at time of writing, the version 1.2.1810 (https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windowsserverdocs/blob/a4b5827771360b24b69b567de2a3244a067c27df/WindowsServerDocs/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-clients.md) Unfortunately, if you try to connect to these VMs with your AAD account/UPN, you get a nice username/password incorrect (I am also connecting from a machine that is AAD-bound in same tenant). However, if you install the so-called "Windows Desktop" app (that is BTW also called "Remote Desktop" in your start menu...), then everything is fine. At time of writing, the app version is 1.2.2459. So while they were already few "Windows Desktop" recent revisions published by MS, the version from the Store is still the one from march 2021 (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/windows-whatsnew) Beside this authentication annoyance, I am wondering why the "Remote Desktop" MS Store version has no feature-parity with the "Windows Desktop" app, and why the one from the Store (which is basically easier to install in 1-click, then playing with a MSI download/installation...), seems always lagging behind? When you look at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-features, there is here yet another naming scheme : Windows Inbox, Windows Desktop, Microsoft Store. Is there no way to harmonize the naming and articles?1KViews0likes0CommentsMultiple, nameless and locked desktop icons
Hi there, After updating to Windows 10 Home 22H2, it is presenting an annoying problem ("Bug") with the update of the desktop icons. I use my laptop to do RENDER and CAD work and during the day after a continuous use of the video graphics the icons on the desktop start to lose their names, to lock, (they do not allow access to the right mouse button) to change position after refreshing the screen and multiplying as ghosts. In the same way, if I refresh the screen more than three times with the right mouse button, the icons adopt the anomalies described above. I have a good laptop: Dell G5 (for gaming), Intel i7 8th gen, 32 ram, Nvidia RTX 2060 6gb, Disk SSD Nvme M2 500gb + SSD sata 1000gb, 144hz display (or 240Hz external display). I'm pretty sure it's a Windows problem. I have created new user accounts and it doesn't work. Currently I am using the Rebuild Icon Cached as temporary solution, (I have to use it with script to repair during the day, but it is not normal). If any of you have a solution, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot.Solved900Views0likes2Comments
