Hello,

Thank you for the detailed description and the recording. It clearly shows the difference: when the RDP session opens into an empty document area, the tab bar appears after the session size has been set, which leaves a vertical scrollbar. When another tab is already open, the session fits exactly.

To match your setup, could you share the Screen sizing mode and Remote desktop size values on the affected RDP entry, under the Display tab? We will try to recreate the issue on our side.

Until there is a fix, opening any other tab before you launch the RDP session avoids the scrollbars, as you already noticed.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Hi,

Thanks for confirming.

Settings on the affected RDP entry (Display tab):

Remote desktop size: Default
Screen sizing mode: Default
Colors: Highest quality (32 bit)
Optimize for Retina displays: Default (No)
Desktop scale factor: Default (100%)
Device scale factor: 100%
“Use all my monitors” / “Span multiple screens”: off

The same happens on all my RDP entries, which all use these defaults.

Additional testing: I switched Screen sizing mode to each of the other options:

Smart Reconnect
Smart Sizing
Dynamic Resolution

With every one of them, the first session opened into an empty document area fits correctly, with no scrollbars. The issue only occurs with Default.
