So…yeah. Seems MS, in their endless wisdom has decided to rename their virtual desktop software, called before as “Remote Desktop” (and good luck trying to find issues with that that are not related to the old RDP tool MTSC.exe) to… “Windows App”. Perfect. Now everything will look like everything, and there’s no way to ever try to search for help for it. Next in line, I guess they can call it just “App”. I’m sure that will help everyone.

    Did Microsoft leave their marketing department to AI or something? They really seem to be dropping the ball rn with app names, and recognition.

        You forgot the “classic” version(s?)… God dammit I hate it so much. Why? I can’t even tell the difference and I’m the reactionary kinda guy that ditched Ubuntu over the gui switch in 2012!

        This seals it for me. They aren’t using version control but are making copies of the working directory with this result.
