Microsoft didn't even support TS gateways in their Mac software until they bought someone out. As shown, it doesn't take new OSes with RDP servers, and touch has always worked in those products even before Windows 8. The point is a 3rd party (iTap, etc) care more than Microsoft about the quality of an experience of RDPing.

I bought a second monitor with worse resolutions strictly so I could use Remote Desktop without having to right click and hit Zoom every time I wanted to admin a server.Ģ016 sure but 2012R2 (the majority of production servers) it's still crap even from Windows 10. I now have a 4K monitor and use scaling options, when I open a RDP session on this monitor it doesn't use those scaling settings when displaying the remote desktop and the cursors are all incorrectly sized (even when I use the Zoom setting. In OS X the remote desktop app has it's own menu bar that lets you edit the current connection and save settings for future re connections.Īnother issue with the windows version I have (I don't know if this is the same for OS X) is scaling. You can't manage the connection after you've opened it. The OS X version let you choose a specific folder to share to the remote computer, the windows version forces you to choose a whole drive.

#Microsoft remote desktop for mac 4k resolutioin full#
It seems the only similar feature is full screen mode. The OS X version opens in a window and resizes the resolution of the remote desktop to match the window dimensions. Two major differences that are a pain in the butt.
