Lol, they're just renaming Remote Desktop to Windows.
So I can use Windows to connect to Windows, and run my Windows.
Truly a moment of marketing brilliance.
They love to do this. 2 years ago they renamed Office (the online, browser based version) to Microsoft 365 https://www.computerworld.com/article/1614302/office-to-be-rebranded-microsoft-365.html
They can present the "new" apps to shareholders
They didn't rename just the in-browser version, they renamed "Office.com, the Office mobile app, and the Office app for Windows"
Fully offline "proplus" is still office and fortunately that's the only one I had to deal with since this change, so I'm not 100% familiar with their newer offerings
