Weird graphical issues between versions..

Originally posted by neilpeel13 September 16, 2025 Hi there Quick discussion first, to see if this is in fact a bug..

Basically, I have a new work laptop and when using the new version 1.78.2 (any of them) also 1.78.1 - when connecting to RDP session, the graphics are a bit blurry and some of the app screens don't display as expected.

Installed 1.77.2 (.net6 version) and it's perfect.. No issues.. Apps have all dialogs as expected.

Screen is 3440x1440 UW.. tested on both UW screens and had same blurryness issue (on 1.78.x versions). Should say, it's using the same confcons file and settings between versions..

Any ideas?

For the reference within this issue and not only in the discussion: The issue appears to be independent on the selected RDP Version.

@neilpeel13: What's your scaling settings within Windows itself? And what Windows Version are you running on?

Workaround for the blurriness with mRemoteNG and windows 11:

  • Rightclick mRemoteNG.exe and go to properties
  • Compatibility tab
  • Change high DPI settings
  • Check "Use this setting to fix scaling problems ..." and select in the "Use the DPI that's set for my main display when" to "I signed in to Windows"
  • Check "override high DPI scaling behaviour" and set it to system

This way it won't rescale the truetype fonts and your menu & ssh session fonts will no longer be blurry. Perhaps the devs can make these settings default (idk). If not, please add this to the documentation.
