KB5050094 Causes RDP Disconnects

MS released KB5051987.
Anybody can try to install it and test?

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.

We also have the same problem. The RDP window flickers briefly, then freezes. You can no longer control the application and have to end the RDP session via the task manager.

Uninstalling KB5050094 resolves the issue!

I am experiencing the same issue on several computers. Uninstalling the update KB5050094 does temporarily fix the issue except in the cases where I don't have the option to uninstall the update.

Hi,
I experienced the same issue. Uninstalling the update resolved the RDP problem. I believe, Microsoft hasn't released a patch yet, so it's best to pause updates for a few days. Alternatively, you can use the Show/Hide Updates Tool (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-temporarily-prevent-a-driver-update-from-reinstalling-in-windows-10-74fed11e-1c5d-0cfb-0b43-1b40c37b38c9) to prevent these updates from installing automatically. We should wait for Microsoft to release a fix.

Thank you.

I have found this issue in one computer in my office. I have 4 users that use RDP daily and the 3 that do not have this update all work without issue. 1 computer installed the update and the issue began. I uninistalled the update and the problem went away. Last night the update installed itself again and the problem returned immediately. Again, I uninstalled the update and the problem went away. I have turned off updates for a short period hoping the update will be fixed soon.
