Windows 10: How to differentiate between RDP session and Run as Different User in Windows 11?

My authentication application running on Windows 11, needs to distinguish between the windows process invoked via RDP session and the windows process invoked via 'Run as Different User'. Problem here is both of them invokes the same 'CredentialUIBroker.exe' process. in Windows 11, however in Windows 10 both the process were different. Please suggest a way to distinguish between these two process.

RDP session appears to be hanging up

I have a workstation that auto updated from Windows 10 to Windows 11.

I RDP into a Windows 2019 server daily.

As I am using the RDP session, several times a day things will become unresponsive. This ranges from the operating system not recognizing when I press the windows key to not being able to click on anything within my programs.

If I close the RDP session then reconnect, I am able to return to using my programs. Simple things like pressing the Windows Key work again to open the start menu.

My assumption is this is with the RDP system since if I close the session and connect a new one, things work again. The server OS is still functioning and my programs are still running.

Note: these computers are not part of a domain. I am using a simple Windows workgroup to network these two computers.

Any ideas or suggestions on where to look for the hangup? Could it be an incompatibility between the RDP client of Windows 11 and the Windows Server 2019 OS?

Thanks, Jeff

RDP sessions on mostly windows 11 computers stop responding

4 or 5 weeks ago we started having problems with windows 11 RDP sessions freezing. We are connecting to a Windows terminal Server 2019. The terminal server is running fine, but the built-in RDP app on our users computers just suddenly stops responding to mouse clicks etc. We can force quit the RDP, but it will sometimes happen again every few minutes. The Microsoft store RDP app works more consistently, but it will only use one screen (most users have two or three) and doesn’t redirect printers. Seems to be mostly Windows 11 computers with the problem, though I now have one Windows 10 user with the same issue but less frequently. I have a feeling that a recent MS Update may be the reason? Anyone else having this issue? It is causing a lot of headache in our office.
