CPU Usage is WAY up, and Doesn’t support Retina screens

I’m shocked that the new version still does not support remote connections with “retina” resolution. It is possible to smoothly render remote 2k and 4k desktops using Remote Desktop on Windows, but the Mac version remains artificially low res.

Worse than that though, doing the same tasks, Activity Monitor reports this new version uses 2-4x as much CPU as the previous version (with the square icon). I noticed this when my 2016 Macbook got HOT using the app… it had always remained at room temperature no matter what when using the old version.

I hope that this is merely an error on Microsoft’s part, but given some of the things the company has done lately, it’s hard to rule out the possibility that they’re doing things other than remote desktop with those CPU cycles.

Doesn't work on my MackBook Pro anymore!!!

The latest version is no longer compatible with 2011 MacBook Pro (the OS can only go as far as Sierra)

I can't find an older version to use.

NOT COOL!!!!

Works great

Since the whole pandemic, I have been relying on this daily for 8 hours. No crashes at all, can be laggy at times even though both PC and Mac have a wired connection but its not anything that will hold you back from getting work done.
