KB5050094 Causes RDP Disconnects

Since computers installed update KB5050094 we are seeing RDP connections being disconnected randomly...sometimes after a few seconds or after a few minutes. We have confirmed that it was this update which caused it by removing the update and then testing, and RDP stayed active as it did previously without any disconnects. We then reinstalled the update and the RDP disconnects started again.

We have also tested this from Macs using the Windows App, and the same users who were disconnected on their Windows systems, where not getting disconnected from the Mac (so not the server end disconnecting).

Looking online, other users are reporting the same issue so this is not specific to our network, clients or servers.

As a note these are Windows 10 and 11 systems.

    Anyone from MS can post some update to Community?

    Found several other threads with this same issue that was locked with no reason.

    This issue is being investigated? Will be fixed?
    We are seeing several comments here on this, the issue was introduced by KB5050094 and untill now, zero Microsoft responses.

    The only "solution" we found (and I hate calling it that as it is not a solution) has been to use some PS commands to effectively hide the updates which cause this issue after they have been uninstalled. That seems to be working for now but of course as soon as MS roll out another update which also impact RDP I expect the same issue to come back again.

    As of the 26th, this issue still isn't resolved. I have to uninstall both 5050094 and 5051987 in order to use RDP. Users with low RDP throughput basically cannot use RDP at all without uninstalling these updates.

    the registry edit option is a poor solution for low throughput users.
