RDWeb Downloads wrong Settings in RDP file [WEIRD]

So, I have a remote app and a full desktop showing in RDWeb. (Server 2022 Datacenter)

Downloading the Remote app is perfect.

Downloading the Full Desktop, gets the same settings as the Remote App ????

I've checked the registry entries and they are correct. Even copied the contents of RDPFileContents entry to notepad and saved as .rdp and it worked great - so its valid...
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\CentralPublishedResources\PublishedFarms\MyCollection\Applications\MyAppName

and

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Terminal Server\CentralPublishedResources\PublishedFarms\MyCollection\RemoteDesktops\MyCollection

The contents have been changed to modify some settings and add the domain name in username section - but again, valid and works. Also changed the Name of each and it shows up in RDWeb properly.

I don't know HOW RDWeb is pulling the wrong entry for the Desktop, since it SHOULD be pulling it from the Registry.

The ONLY thing I can think of is that my Collection Name and the Remote App name are the same... (above MyCollection and MyAppName are the same) but why would that be a problem?

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft community forum.

    The symptom may be that RDWeb is using old data in the cache. Try to clear the relevant cache and start the IIS server to ensure that RDWeb extracts the latest data from the registry.

    You mentioned that your collection name is the same as the remote application name. This can be a potential problem because RDWeb may confuse these names when processing RDP file download requests, resulting in configuration information being read from the wrong location. You can try recreating the collection with a different name and reconfiguring the application and desktop.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards

    Jacen
