RDC Client for Mac 2.1.1 vs MS Remote Desktop 8.0.21

-

mac mini (mid 2011), 2.3 ghz intel 

osx yosimite 10.10.5

rdc client mac 2.1.1 (previously installed)

ms remote desktop 8.0.21 (downloaded app store)

observed experience: 

i have 1 .rdp file on desktop configured remote client address , user name info. 

the first time opened file first time mac opened rdc client @ time message box appeared requesting password info option save keychain. after entering password , clicking "save keychain" box system connected rdp server expected. and, ever since then, double-clicking .rdp file on desktop connect direct rdp server. 

if right-click same .rdp file , select "open with” , select ms remote desktop app message pops saying file invalid. 

if start ms remote desktop app can import .rdp file "my desktops” list. after editing desktop entry password info connection rdp server initiated , completed. subsequent connections using entry in desktops list automatic , without incident (i.e. don’t have enter password.)

i can export working entry ms remote desktop app new .rdp file. when right-click new .rdp file , select "open with” , select ms remote desktop app connection initiate prompted password. can enter password , connect successfully. subsequent similar attempts using same method continue ask password.

the question: why can’t ms remote desktop open connection directly without having enter password each time? seems ms remote desktop store password within app not in keychain. seems minor have users unfamiliar rdp servers/clients , distracted easily.

has run same thing , found workaround? missing?

hi,

in current version of microsoft remote desktop, cannot store password in rdp files. description seems cannot recognized file if password contained. i'll test if can reproduce issue confirm.

please remember mark replies answers if , un-mark them if provide no help. if have feedback technet support, contact tnmff@microsoft.com.
