As with most modern Mac applications, Windows App is available for download through the Mac App Store. Go to the icon Dock on your desktop and click the blue "App Store" icon to open it.

Inside the Mac App Store, type "Windows App" into the search bar at the top right hand portion of the window. The option you want is an Windows icon. It should be the first option listed.

To begin downloading Windows App, click the blue "Get" button. This app is free, so no price will be listed. Once you click on "Get," the button will turn green and say "Install app." Click the button again.

For here, you can close out the App Store. To access the newly downloaded app, click the the grey "Launchpad" icon in the Dock. Click the Microsoft Remote Desktop app icon to open the app. If you can't seem to find the icon (it will look the same as it did in the App Store), try swiping left. If you have many application, the Launchpad will have multiple pages.

Another way to find the app is by using the Spotlight Search feature, which you can access by clicking the looking glass at the top right of your home screen, or by using the shortcut Command + Spacebar. Once you have Spotlight open, type "Windows App" and hit enter.

If you want to be able to quickly return to this application in the future, you should set it in your dock. To do so, right click (control + click) on the icon, mouse over "Options," and click "Keep in Dock." This will keep you from having to look for the icon every time you need to use it.

 

 

Once you open the app, click the "PLUS ➕" button at the top right of the Windows App screen. You will click on "Add PC". You'll be prompted to fill in a few fields.

 

First you'll need to input the PC name , thats the IP address sent to your mail from GoldenRDP so your Mac knows where to find your PC.

Next line is the Credentials is where you will type in the Username, and Password of the RDP ( the one sent to your mail from GoldenRDP) so you can log in through the remote connection. 

Then you'll input a Friendly name. This is just a nickname and has no real bearing on the connection itself. For example, you could call it "Williams RDP"

Next line is the Gateway, you can ignore that

Then click on "Add" to save the login details.

 

In the same window, click the "Session" tab in the middle to configure peripheral devices for your remote desktop.
