Microsoft Remote Desktop Beta is Microsoft's remote desktop client for macOS that allows users to connect to and control Windows PCs, Hyper-V virtual machines, and Remote Desktop Session Host servers from their Mac. It supports multiple monitor setups, clipboard sharing, printer and device redirection, and audio streaming. The app is commonly used by IT professionals, system administrators, and remote workers who need to access Windows systems for work or maintenance tasks. The beta channel allows early access to new features before they reach the stable release build.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon (Universal Binary) build of Microsoft Remote Desktop Beta has been confirmed running on real Macs in the Rosetta Check community. Anyone still running an older Intel-only build under Rosetta should update to the latest version to take advantage of native performance and improved battery efficiency on M-series Macs. The simplest path is to launch the app and check for updates via the Help menu, or download the latest build directly from Microsoft's official Remote Desktop download page.
