Useful and reliable tool
Use this 30-40 hrs a week for connecting to several Windows systems (Servers, PCs, 2013, 10, XP). Helps me earn my living. I’ve given it only 4 stars because:
• It’s taken to not closing down when I quit. I have to do “force quit”. • There could be more settings. For example, I’ve not got it to recognize my Apple keyboard layout. Have to remember to swap @ and double-quote. • I like to reserve 5 stars for outstanding excellence! I recommend it. Remotely control a Windows 10 PC - Perfect
I stumbled across this 'App' recently and have been using it on my 10 year old iMac, I found that it gave new life to the old girl, it remembers passwords, displays in full screen and has better resolution than my pc at the office. Ive recently started to use this on my new iMac which is running a more up to date version of OS and replaced the old RDP application that I had and its working perfectly. I don’t try transfering stuff through it - i just put files I want onto dropbox and then get to them from there. Anyway it works perfectly so it has my recommendation!
Far better than version 10
There are some longstanding issues with this version, as it seems that Microsoft have abandoned active development in favour of the new version 10.
This version works far better than version 10 does; while it does have some flaws (a failure to quit properly being the most obvious) it lets me work the way I need to, which version 10 does not. Retiring this version before 10 is properly functional is a terrible decision. Information
