That is a good point. I don't remember why but some time ago I couldn't get 
remmina to work (properly?) so I have been using a PPA version of the 
program for quite some time. Under Linux Mint I am using version 
1.4.3+ppa202004152214.r795df10.d801df04~ubuntu16.04.1

Regarding my comment about the availability of RDP in Windows 10, my laptop 
has Windows 10 that was obtained as part of the free 8 to 10 update. When 
trying to activate RDP the Windows system tells I require an upgrade to 
Windows 10 Pro in order to have the RDP feature.
