4/11/2023 0 Comments Upgrade word on macThe reason being it was not written by American programmers who are wilfully ignorant regarding international keyboard layouts. When I last was personally victimised by Microsoft with this issue many years ago I also reported this but I found that the Parallels Remote Desktop Client for Mac did not have this bug. Note: I have just reproduced this with Microsoft Remote Desktop 10.8.1 (2048) running under macOS Ventura 13.2.1 with as mentioned a UK Mac keyboard. Literally thousands and thousands of Mac users throughout the world except the USA have been complaining about this ever since. Regardless as this was new/different code it REINTRODUCED THE SAME BUG!!! Microsoft then bought a 3rd party RDC client and this became the next Microsoft official client and I cannot remember if this was released as version 5.x or 7.x. The most infamous examples of this where that the Mac " (speech marks) key would generate (at symbol) in Windows and vice versa although a number of other incorrect key mappings also apply. Version 1.x had a bug whereby anybody using a Mac with a non-US keyboard was tortured by the software failure to map keys correctly to the Windows session. (Yes ghastly is the right word and this is not a typo where 'glorious' should have been used.) Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Mac has a long and ghastly history.
