Mac OS X: Older versions of Remote Desktop will cause errors. You can get the most recent version at the app store: -remote-desktop-10/id1295203466?mt=12 (link is external) (or search for Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac). Some users have reported they needed to delete their older version for the new version to work properly.
Linux/Unix: The most commonly used client is called rdesktop, included in most distributions of Linux. If it is not present, it can be downloaded from a third party site: (link is external).
This update reduces the time that RDC 8.1 client takes to reconnect to a remote session compared to the time that is taken by the RDC 8.0 client and earlier versions of the client. The actual time that the client takes to reconnect depends on the network and deployment configuration.
After the update is installed, RemoteApp programs and desktop sessions behave like local programs when you add, remove, rotate, or change the resolution of the local client. For example, when you apply rotation, the width and height is changed accordingly on any RemoteApp programs, and the resolution of a desktop session is also adjusted.

This update does not include Remote Desktop Protocol 8.1 server-side components for Windows 7 virtual desktops. In other words, this update includes only the new client. Therefore, the update applies only to computers that will be used as client computers. The RDP 8.0 update includes both the RDC 8.0 client and the RDP 8.0 server-side protocol components for Windows 7 SP1 virtual desktops. If you want to have both the RDP 8.0 server-side components and the RDC 8.1 client installed on the same computer, you must first install the RDP 8.0 update and then later install this update.

I used to work in a place where we had Windows Server 2008 R2 VMs, and when I would remote to them, the desktop resolution would always resize itself to the size of the window I was connecting with, so there would never be any scrollbars.
Or you could try the span parameter, which "matches the remote desktop width and height with the local virtual desktop, spanning across multiple monitors, if necessary. To span across monitors, the monitors must be arranged to form a rectangle." E.g.:
Though both SQL Server Native Client and ODBC drivers are often backward compatible to older releases, they are not necessarily forward compatible. There is no guarantee older/unsupported clients can work without issue. When upgrading the environment, the SQL Server client drivers must be upgraded as well. This is to ensure newer functionality introduced in ArcGIS is supported.
In one of the future releases of the Citrix Workspace Application, calls between endpoints with the upcoming release for the Citrix Workspace app and endpoints with Citrix Workspace app 2108 or older versions will not be supported. This calling incompatibility includes 1912 LTSR Citrix Workspace app clients (CWA). The following CWA clients are impacted:
If your remote computer is Windows the remote desktop client needs to have a special configuration such that the client knows to make the connection before asking for the username/password. Specifically the remote desktop client settings need to contain the line "enablecredsspsupport:i:0" usually at the bottom of the file Default.rdp which is usually a hidden file in your Documents folder. You are recommended to download this copy of our standard configuration file Default.rdp to your Documents folder and use that file to open a connection to your domain-connected computer. When using these Default.rdp settings file in order to make the connection before asking for username/password you should see the login screen asking your to "Enter your Oxford SSO and Password".
If your remote computer is Mac then please download and use version 10 of Microsoft Remote Desktop. from the Mac App Store. (note that if you already have the older version 8 app it should be replaced with version 10) Open Microsoft Remote Desktop app and click the + add , then enter the full name of the remote computer e.g. oums-desktop.materials.ox.ac.uk, then save/close the window, then click to connect to the computer which will ask you to enter the username and password. (please always type your password - do not choose to save it).
It is possible to use remote desktop to access your own desktop within the department so that when working remotely it feels as though you are sitting in front of your department desktop. This is desirable because it gives you full access to your usual working environment and all files remain on the department desktop.

While Remote Desktop is more secure than remote administration tools such as VNC that do not encrypt the entire session, any time Administrator access to a system is granted remotely there are risks. The following tips will help to secure Remote Desktop access to both desktops and servers that you support.
This is a mess. I have a Business license and have Version 12.0.259142 dated Feb 5 2012 on both the remote client and my PC and get a "Older version" error.. Ironically I have V 12.0.259024 dated Nov 17th 2020 on my laptop that WILL connect. So tell me how an older version WILL connect to the newer version, but the two on the same version don't. This has been going on for over a week now.
This company **bleep** and obviously has enough corporate clients that love to flush money down the toilet for a simple remote management solution. I have had nothing but failures with teamviewer for over 6 years!!! They continue to chase cloud backup garbage and fail at the basic thing they started with (REMOTE COMPUTER ACCESS!) It is absolutely unacceptable to have a computer unable to connect due to newer versions on other computers, That is some APPLE INC **bleep** right there!!!
Microsoft provides the client required for connecting to newer RDP versions for downlevel operating systems. Since the server improvements are not available downlevel, the features introduced with each newer RDP version only work on downlevel operating systems when connecting to a higher version RDP server from these older operating systems, and not when using the RDP server in the older operating system.[clarification needed]
This version was released in February 2008 and is included with Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 and Windows XP with Service Pack 3, and also made available for Windows XP SP2, Windows Server 2003 SP1/SP2 (x86 and (x64 editions) and Windows XP Professional x64 Edition as a download.[10] In addition to changes related to how a remote administrator connects to the "console",[11] this version has new functionality introduced in Windows Server 2008, such as connecting remotely to individual programs and a new client-side printer redirection system that makes the client's print capabilities available to applications running on the server, without having to install print drivers on the server[12][13] also on the other hand, remote administrator can freely install, add/remove any software or setting at the client's end. However, to start a remote administration session, one must be a member of the Administrators group on the server to which one is trying to get connected.[14]
There are numerous non-Microsoft implementations of RDP clients and servers that implement subsets of the Microsoft functionality. For instance, the open-source command-line client rdesktop is available for Linux/Unix and Microsoft Windows operating systems. There are many GUI clients, like tsclient and KRDC, that are built on top of rdesktop.[4]
In 2009, rdesktop was forked as FreeRDP, a new project aiming at modularizing the code, addressing various issues, and implementing new features. FreeRDP comes with its own command-line-client xfreerdp, which supports Seamless Windows in RDP6.[41] Around 2011, the project decided to abandon forking and instead rewrite under Apache License, adding more features like RemoteFX, RemoteApp, and NTLMv2.[42] A commercial distribution called Thincast was started in 2019.[43] A multi-platform client based on FreeRDP including Vulkan/H.264 support followed in summer 2020. There's a GTK-based client named Remmina also based on FreeRDP.
