Lingering Crystal Reports splash screen that stays on top of all windows, including all OS windows, on macOS makes it very difficult to work. Can't move it, so a big chunk of the screen is simply obscured. Only quitting MRD makes it go away, and with multiple cloud-hosted apps on RDS being a big part of my workflow, well...

I submitted a Technical Support Incidents to Microsoft Support to get help regarding this issue. Unfortunately, they couldn't give any help. When I asked if Microsoft acknowledges this issue as a bug in Server 2019, they say "most probably not, thus there is little probability that it will be fixed in the future". I suspect due to recent collaboration between Microsoft and Citrix, Microsoft might no longer have appetite in maintaining RemoteApp solution on their server platforms.
I also confirmed that the same problem doesn't appear when I run the RemoteApp on Windows 10. Yes you can run RemoteApp from Windows 10. See answer from Thorsten Schöning here : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1226772/can-rdp-clients-launch-remote-applications-and-not-desktops

I am trying RDS 2019 with RemoteApp, and I have issues with startup sprinkle screens. Each sprinkle screen makes a catch on the customer's taskbar and doesn't vanish from work area and taskbar after the presence of the fundamental window. For instance, I run three RemoteApp and I have three sprinkle screens and three program windows on my work area. Also, regardless of whether I close these windows, the sprinkle screens will in any case stay on work area and can't be shut. This happens just in RemoteApp and doesn't happen with a far off work area mode. I attempted to reproduce a RDS ranch once more, however it doesn't help.
This doesn't occur with all projects (having sprinkle screen), however with many. Simultaneously, there were no such issues at RDS 2012R2/2016.
As RDCB and RDSH utilized Windows Server 2019 with most recent aggregate update (2019-01). As customers utilized Windows 10 1709/1809 with same update.

Can't retire our RDS 2008 R2 thanks to multiple bugs in newer RDS versions. Had to scrap already-prepared RDS 2016, as clipboard between RemoteApps and Local Apps was not working properly, also multiple problems with apps' windows focus. (MS support comment -- "working as intended"). And now RDS 2019 is unusable with splash screen getting stuck.

Remoteapp: Support it or scrap it. This splash-screen issue is happening with many clients with multiple different software running via remoteapp.
