Recently moved offices and purchased new computers with windows 11 to work from. When I downloaded the remote desktop app from the microsoft store and try to full screen, it's only occupying 1 of 2 of my monitors. I'm having this problem with all three of our new computers and was wondering if anybody else has that problem. This doesn't seem to be a problem for my windows 10 computer at home as all my monitors connect when it's full screen. Both monitors are working on the windows 11 computer but not the remote desktop. I can only access display settings on my side and not the remote pc that I'm connecting to.

    Hello

    Thank you for your question and reaching out. I can understand you are having query\issues related to Remote Desktop App multiple monitors.

    1. Please try to Uninstall and Reinstall Remote Desktop App.
    2. Please try to RDP using mstsc.exe -> Settings -> Display -> Tick Use all my monitors for remote session.
