Description

Hi everyone, this system it's really nice to approach the windows app to run in fully compatibility , I applaud the wonderful work of the author!!!!

I settled everything and the guide to settle the machine it's really detailed, but I have the problem with my `winapps.conf`, because I'm run Ubuntu in UHD (4k) Monitor, when I will try to change the DPI scale over of 100 like 140 or even 160 the apps it doesn't run anymore. If I place back the DPI to 100 or simple disable it to add the `# ` in `RDP_SCALE` (to keep the default settings); when I will try to open the app again it simply works....
I have tried to restart the PC, but it seems that doesn't influence on that.

Any idea?

Research direction

Start with winapps.conf, especially the RDP_SCALE setting, and reproduce the failure on Ubuntu with a 4K display at 140 or 160 DPI. Compare the behavior with RDP_SCALE disabled or set to 100; done means the Windows apps launch successfully while using a scale above 100.
