This question is not about the ubiquitous RDP client that has been on windows for many years, this question is regarding the new Windows 10 Remote Desktop app, which must have been packaged in an update at some point.


The app I'm writing about can be found on the windows store, and is suggested as a client on the second row of this page Remote Desktop clients next to "Windows Store"
