    I'm testing out Remote Apps for our network and I keep losing focus of the "window" after I hit the enter key.  This is happening intermittently on a XP SP3 and Windows 8 PC.  It seems to happen most when hitting Enter for a input box which brings up another input box.  However it's also happening every so often when it's noting bringing up another input box but going back to the form.  This would basically make Remote Applications unusable if they are going to constantly lose focus as the users aren't going to put up with this functionality.  The server that is serving the Remote Apps is 2008 R2.

    Not sure if this matters but the RDP Version for the XP PC is 6.0.6001.  This is also happening from the terminal server that is hosting the remote app if I connect to the remote app on the TS Desktop (running the rdp file).  Just a FYI I can't get this behavior to happen when not running as a Remote Application.  When running normally pressing Enter has no effect on the focus of the application (yes I spent 15 min hitting F1 (brings up the input box), Type in info, Enter Key).

    Hi,

    Please try to install RDC 7.0 on XP, see if the issue still persists.

    Initial 5 min test seems good, I'll test it heavier over the next few hours and get back to you... Thanks for the input as I thought I had the newest version for XP.
