    I just registered to also say thanks and add two things:
    If you use vmware workstation and have the VMware Tools installed the display settings are automatically set to a special scale level. So this is a really bad issue then. Either use the full potential of the vmware tools or use saved rdp sessions.
    But fortunately it looks like one of the Updates for Windows fixed it.

    Thanks so much for bringing me to the decision to check if there is another update avaialble!

    Encryption is standard with Anydesk - http://www.Anydesk.com I've been using it instead of the ridiculously priced TeamViewer for connecting to client machines without the need for port forwarding.
