Lol, they’re just renaming Remote Desktop to Windows.
So I can use Windows to connect to Windows, and run my Windows.
Truly a moment of marketing brilliance.
They love to do this. 2 years ago they renamed Office (the online, browser based version) to Microsoft 365 https://www.computerworld.com/article/1614302/office-to-be-rebranded-microsoft-365.html
They can present the “new” apps to shareholders
This comes full circle with everyone’s grandma incessantly calling every piece of software on their computer “The Microsoft.”
The grandmas were right the whole time!
The Android version of the app still has the zoom/cursor offset bug when using a software keyboard from when they sunset RDP 8. That has been a severe usability bug for over three years now.
I’m just here for the yo dawg memes.
Is that kind of like how I talk to my team on the team’s app and send files and messages to them in the team in the teams app?
They seriously need a new marketing group.
Teams in Teams is the naming I hate the most. Should have called them communities to match Viva Engage (Yammer) or just groups.
It’s like how they made the Xbox, then the Xbox one, then the Xbox one X, then the Xbox series X. (Yeah there were other options between/simultaneous, but this sequence is a nice clean illustration.)
Much more interesting is the part about Relayed RDP Shortpath. With STUN and TURN and even a relay it sounds like this will enable some usecases similar to TeamViewer
This will be really easy to google for.

And I thought developers were bad at naming.
The Microsoft school of naming things is really showing their ways

Yo dawg, I heard you like Windows, so we put Windows in your Windows so you can use Windows while you use Windows
