We regularly update the Remote Desktop client for macOS, adding new features and fixing issues. Here's where you'll find the latest updates.

If you encounter any issues, you can always contact us by navigating to Help > Report an Issue.

Updates for version 10.3.9

Date published: 4/6/20

In this release we've made some changes to improve interoperability with the Windows Virtual Desktop service. In addition, we've included the following updates:

• Control+Option+Delete now triggers the Ctrl+Alt+Del sequence (previously required pressing the Fn key).
• Fixed the keyboard mode notification color scheme for Light mode.
• Addressed scenarios where connections initiated using the GatewayAccessToken RDP file property didn't work.

Note

This is the last release that will be compatible with macOS 10.12.

Updates for version 10.3.8

Date published: 2/12/20

It's time for our first release of 2020!

With this update, you can switch between Scancode (Ctrl+Command+K) and Unicode (Ctrl+Command+U) modes when entering keyboard input. Unicode mode allows extended characters to be typed using the Option key on a Mac keyboard. For example, on a US Mac keyboard, Option+2 will enter the trademark (™) symbol. You can also enter accented characters in Unicode mode. For example, on a US Mac keyboard, entering Option+E and the 'A' key at the same time will enter the character 'á' on your remote session.

Other updates in this release include:

• Cleaned up the workspace refresh experience and UI.
• Addressed a smart card redirection issue that caused the remote session to stop responding at the sign-in screen when the 'Checking Status' message appeared.
• Reduced time to create temporary files used for clipboard-based file copy and paste.
• Temporary files used for clipboard file copy and paste are now deleted automatically when you exit the app, instead of relying on macOS to delete them.
• PC bookmark actions are now rendered at the top-right corner of thumbnails.
• Made fixes to address issues reported through crash telemetry.

Updates for version 10.3.7

Date published: 1/6/20

In our final update of the year, we fine-tuned some code and fixed the following behaviors:

• Copying things from the remote session to a network share or USB drive no longer creates empty files.
• Specifying an empty password in a user account no longer causes a double certificate prompt.

Updates for version 10.3.6

Microsoft Remote Desktop For Mac Error Code 0x204 Windows 10

Date published: 1/6/20

In this release, we addressed an issue that created zero-length files whenever you copied a folder from the remote session to the local machine using file copy and paste.

Updates for version 10.3.5

Date published: 1/6/20

We made this update with the help of everyone who reported issues. In this version, we've made the following changes:

• Redirected folders can now be marked as read-only to prevent their contents from being changed in the remote session.
• We addressed a 0x607 error that appeared when connecting using RPC over HTTPS RD Gateway scenarios.
• Fixed cases where users were double-prompted for credentials.
• Fixed cases where users received the certificate warning prompt twice.
• Added heuristics to improve trackpad-based scrolling.
• The client no longer shows the 'Saved Desktops' group if there are no user-created groups.
• Updated UI for the tiles in PC view.
• Fixes to address crashes sent to us via application telemetry.

Note

In this release, we now accept feedback for the Mac client only through UserVoice.

• Camera redirection is now possible when connecting to Windows 10 1809, Windows Server 2019 and later.
