display issue

Microsoft has identified an issue affecting the display of security warnings when users open Remote Desktop (.rdp) files across all supported versions of Windows, including Windows 11, Windows 10, and Windows Server. The security warning may not render correctly, making the text difficult to read and buttons misaligned, especially when multiple monitors with different display scaling settings are used. This issue often results in overlapping text or obscured buttons in the warning window. The problem is part of Microsoft's security enhancements introduced with the April 2026 cumulative updates, which aim to mitigate risks associated with malicious RDP connection files. Users receive a one-time educational prompt upon opening an RDP file for the first time, followed by a security dialog that provides information about the file's publisher and resource redirections. RDP files are commonly used in enterprise environments, but their exploitation in phishing campaigns has raised security concerns, particularly by groups like the Russian state-sponsored APT29.
