    Hi,
    That won't work as I am not running windows. I have a MacBook running Big Sur.

    If you are experiencing problem with RDC for mac when downloading from App store,
    1.Kindly confirm if this is the only application that you are not capable to download.

    2.You could go with the Beta version, which could be downloaded from browser directly.
