Microsoft has discontinued this week its Remote Desktop Connection Manager (RDCMan) application following the discovery of a security flaw. As its name suggests, the app allows users to connect remotely to other Windows computers via RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). The app, which was developed by the former Windows Live Experience team for their internal use, has been available for download from the Microsoft website since the late 2000s.
