transition time microsoft swaps remote desktop for new windows app on may

Our beloved tech giant, Microsoft, is currently preoccupied with a bit of an "out with the old, in with the new" phase. The crux of this hullabaloo is the betwixt and between situation of its present Remote Desktop app and the impending Windows app.

Brace yourselves—on the 27^th of May, Microsoft's Remote Desktop app, the online equivalent of a trusty ol' spanner, will officially become as outdated as a pair of Victorian bloomers. Indeed, on this inevitable day, it will be 'bon voyage' for the aged veteran. It's served its purpose, drawing admiring glances from a socially distant global user base. But alas! Time, the cruel and relentless nanny, is putting it to bed.

In its place, we will find the brisk and fully awake Windows app. 'New and improved' will be its rallying cry, as it strides onto the world stage. It presents itself with the air of a digital peacock, promising to be the magical cure-all to our remote access woes. Will it rise gracefully to the occasion or stagger like a malfunctioning Dalek, causing its userbase to pine for the 'good old app'? Only time will tell.

So come May 27^th, expect a 'Changing of the Guard' at the Microsoft store. Run a final health check on any remaining ties with the Remote Desktop app, or risk being left behind, deserted on the island of obsoleteness. As we leap headlong into the future, the key question remains - will our teacups be half empty or half full? Will the new Windows app provide solace, or serve us a hot steaming mug of despair? And will Bill's technological behemoth manage the switch and carry on saving our digital bacon?

Let us cross our fingers and hope Westminster hasn't cornered the market on changes fraught with uncertainty. Read more here.
