Original post from Microsoft
The Remote Desktop Web Access (RD Web Access) experience included with Windows Server relies on Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) to render its web interface. Chromium-based and other browsers are disabling XSLT support in the short term.
As browsers disable this feature, the RD Web Access experience included with Windows Server will no longer render as expected. Microsoft has published KB5130994 with workarounds for organizations that continue to use this experience.
Rollout schedule:
Browser changes that disable XSLT support are expected to affect the RD Web Access experience in the short term.
Impact on your organization:
Organizations that have deployed the RD Web Access experience included with Windows Server are affected. After XSLT support is disabled in a browser, users who open RD Web Access with that browser might encounter a page that fails to render as expected. As a result, users might be unable to access remote resources.
Action required/recommendations:
Organizations that use the RD Web Access experience included with Windows Server should prepare for this browser compatibility change. Review details at KB5130994: RD Web Access fails to load when XSLT is disabled in Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome and consider a workaround if needed.
