Why remote desktop? I can understand the rest. But who uninstalls default apps and doesn't use remote desktop?

    Very few people use remote desktop.

    Very few people bother removing all the default apps in the first place.

    The type of high caliber nerd to care about a pre installed app that sits dormant and uses a few MB of storage probably already uses remote desktop often enough they'd want to keep it.

    Remote Desktop App vs Remote Desktop Connection.

    Remote Desktop is dead. Azure killed it. TeamViewer is the replacement (and yes you have to pay for it) or you pick another third party vendor for your RDP needs.

    Scammers notably of course, but it's Microsoft's sanctioned solution to them removing RDP capability with Azure. I'm super interested in finding out what cut they get or how much TeamViewer payed for that.
