RDP client without FIPS?

Hi All,


I have a customer with a Mac Book that need RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) access to a Windows 10 Pro machine at her office. The Microsoft RDP Client for Mac works very well, but it requires that the server have FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) enabled on the server.


Problem: FIPS crashes QuickBooks on the server:

"Unfortunately, the solution was to disable FIPS mode"


On my own office computer running Fedora 33, I run xfreerdp, which runs marvelously: FIPS or no FIPS. But xfreerdp looks like a nightmare to install on Mac OS:

Do you guys have a recommendation for a nice RDP client that does not require FIPS to be enabled on the server?


Many thanks,
