    Best remote desktop client for accessing a Mac?


    I'm using Windows for the first time in a very long time and want to use a remote desktop to access my MacBook on the same screen. What's the best remote desktop client to do that? Just Microsoft's remote desktop?

    I'm using Parsec for gaming on this computer on my Mac and have used Screens for Mac to Mac. But neither of those support Mac on Win.

  3. Microsoft Remote Desktop Mac Mouse porblems

    Hi Marco,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are using Remote Desktop application on Mac OS and want to simulate the PC mouse right click on your Mac Mouse.



    In order to make use of the right-click inside an open session you have options of using:

    • Standard PC two button USB mouse
    • Apple Magic Mouse: To enable right-click, click
      System Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable
      Secondary click.


    For additional information you can also refer the following links:

    Remote Desktop Services - Get started with the macOS client

    Frequently asked questions about the Remote Desktop
    clients




    Meanwhile, if you have any queries regarding Remote Desktop Services, you can also post your query in

    TechNet forums
    , which would be the appropriate forum for RDP issues, where you will find professionals with expertise on Remote Desktop.

    Best remote desktop client for accessing a Mac?

    Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Mac slow to Windows Server 2016 / 2019

    Hi

    Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Mac is unworkably slow when connecting to Windows 2016 / 2019 VPS over VPN. Windows clients work fine over the same connection. I have this problem with IPSEC tunnel as well as OpenVPN to the destination network. If I run
    the native Windows 10 client from VMware Fusion on the Mac the performance is fine so it's safe to assume the Mac itself or the VPN connection is fine.

    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated..

    Kind regards

    -Jan
