Windows 11 Update KB5050094-January2025 causes an issue with RDP

vicsanfor · Tuesday at 11:21 AM

Hi, I have Windows Home 11 and since the update KB5050094, remote desktop is not working, the connection is lost every 2 minutes or so. I searched on Google but I didn't find any solution, I just uninstalled it but then Windows updated and the problem appeared.

Home does not come with RDP as you need Pro for that.
There are ways around it, of course.
Please give us your winver please.

I have always worked with Remote Desktop, since windows 8.

Home does not come with RDP, However it does come with RDC(mstsc.exe), to make a connection to a machine that has RDP enabled.

@vicsanfor is your connection still stable.
Can you open command prompt, and do a Ping ServernameOrIPadress -t and see if connection drops out when Remote Desktop is losing its connection.

example:

My connection is ok. I did ping Google.com -t

I guess uninstall the update, and restart, is an preview update i think.
run promt as admin, and command to uninstall:
wusa /uninstall /kb:5050094
Or uninstall trough the Settings->Windows update settings page.
Then temporary pause updates. until microsoft fixes it.

If still not works, uninstall KB5051987 aswell.

That's what I did, I uninstalled the update and everything worked again, however it reinstalls itself if Windows updates are activated, that's why I was looking for another solution.

Do you know how I can report this issue to Microsoft? I have tried through Microsoft support on their page but I have no option to send them emails or chat.

From what i have read om microsoft site yesterday, they are already informed. And what i posted was the workaround until next update will fix it. (can't find the link now)
