Since updating to Windows Admin Center 2103.2, I am unable to use the Remote Desktop feature in Windows Admin Center. After entering my credentials, I get the following error:

 An unexpected error occurred: 'handle[name] is not a function'

I have uninstalled, cleaned my computer of all the traces of Admin Center I could find in files and in the registry, reinstalled, but I still get the same error. I also verified that WinRM service is running. I can use Remote Desktop App to remote into the server or any other machine. I can use PowerShell for remote management as well. We use Active Directory on Windows Server 2016 and Windows Admin Center is installed on a workstation running Windows 21H1 Build 19043.1023.

    I installed Windows Admin Center on Windows 10 20H2 machine and attempted to remote into Windows Server 2016, and I also attempted to remote into a Windows 10 21H1 computer, but both failed with the same error.
