Until recently, it was working fine: It would go to full screen and show this blue full screen connection bar at the top when pointing there with the mouse.

Now it only resizes to the full size of my screen minus the task bar (so I still see that and the RDCman's window is also not behind my local task bar. The blue bar at the top appears for a moment but I cannot get it back when moving the mouse there. Reinstalling did not help. Any idea what might have caused this and how to fix it?

Kadokawa Shoten. Or Faulting application mstsc.exe, version 6.0.6001.18000, faulting module mstscax.dll, version 6.0.6001.xxxxx, fault address Some_Hex_Code_Here.
