Windows RDP Security Update Popup

Windows rolled out a security update on RDP connections that now shows a new pop-up when launching a remote file directly.  The screen will look like this: 

1.) Make sure you select the “Clipboard” and “Printers” checkboxes.
2.) Click “Connect.”
3.) This will take you to your App Login.
4.) The next time you log in, the security pop-up will display, but you do not need to select the checkboxes again; just click on “Connect.”
