  1. I cant use multiple displays using the Remote Desktop App


    When using the ‘Remote desktop connection’ without the app, it was able to replicate my current monitor setup automatically. However the app works a lot faster so I am starting to use this.When going through the App version it seems to window to one screen, and I read that a lot of the settings inside the app apply to the current monitor the app is using. I have checked the box under ‘display’ allowing to ‘use all monitors for the remote session’, as I did with the other version which worked, but it has not worked for the App version.I can’t easily see a way to extend this display.

  2. remote desktop

    Hello,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    Please help me with the below details to understand your issue in a better way:



    1. Are you using the Microsoft remote desktop app?


    If you are using the Microsoft remote desktop app downloaded from
    Microsoft store then, I suggest you to follow the steps to
    fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store
    .



    If the issue still persists with the Microsoft remote desktop app, then you can contact the support team by going to the

    link
    and scrolling down to the bottom and clicking on
    Microsoft remote desktop support under the Publisher info.



    However, if you are using the Remote desktop connection, which comes pre-installed with Windows 10, then I suggest you to please post your question in the
    TechNet forum.



    Hope it helps.
