Hello

I have been working with RDP and forwarding of usb controller (old xbox controller) to a remote pc since the corona days with mostly good experiences.

After this recent update, the option to select RemoteFX has seemingly vanished from the RDP prompt prior to connection. I have been unable to find any information on this issue so hoping for an answer/solution in here

I have run through all the usual guides and hoops to force update group policies and checked that nothing changed in those settings. It appears to be on the RDP update itself

For reference this guide used to work, until the 24h2 update: https://www.gavpugh.com/2018/10/03/using-game-controllers-over-a-remote-desktop-session/

Thanks
