Wait, let me say that this is not accurate without defending Microsoft (fuck them). The rdp client hasn't been renamed, to my knowledge. What was renamed to Windows app was the other product very confusingly named "remote desktop client", which was a Microsoft Store app meant to access things like Azure Virtual Desktop, their cloud Windows service, etc. Yes, incredibly confusing product naming from Microsoft, as usual.
Haha that is actually even more funny. :)
True! :)
