Microsoft making questionable decisions lately, the official RDP client on Mac was renamed to "Windows App" some weeks ago. It's hard to come up with a worse name, Windows App is what I name any software product that runs natively on Windows.

RIP all the helpdesk employees who have to explain this to end users

I'm not sure if it has to do with the UI redesign and renaming, but I don't feel the new app is as reliable as before. My RDP connections now fail all the time.

For me, the connection always fails the first time and after retrying it works.

They should just tell people to use Google's Chrome remote desktop.
