================= 
Hello, I'm using MRD 10.3.3 and I have following problem: how can I use the Mac Mouse as a PC Mouse ? How can I "emulate" the right button of a normal PC Mouse on the remote desktop ? I use some PC applications on RD and I need to use the right or the central mouse button but I can't make it with the "single-button" mac mouse. Does exist a shortcut combination in order to emulate this ? Or should I make some special configuration on the Mac or on the RD in order to use it ?
Many thanks in advance for the kind help,
All the best,

    Welcome to our new Microsoft Q&A Platform.

    Hi,

    In order to make use of the right-click inside an open session you have three options:

    1. Standard PC two button USB mouse
    2. Apple Magic Mouse: To enable right-click, click System Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.
    3. Apple Magic Trackpad or MacBook Trackpad: To enable right-click, click System Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.
