Description
Suggestion
The api of Remote Desktop ActiveX from Remote Desktop services seems to be missing. Some classes that can not be used are the MsRdpClient also their interfaces are missing. However, other ones such as RemoteDesktopClient seems to be implemented under windows::Win32::System::RemoteDesktop.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/termserv/msrdpclient12 (Not implemented, MsTscAx.dll)
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/termserv/remotedesktopclient (Implemented and in the same DLL, MsTscAx.dll)

Research direction
Start with the Microsoft documentation for MsRdpClient and RemoteDesktopClient linked in the issue, then compare the implemented RemoteDesktopClient metadata under windows::Win32::System::RemoteDesktop. Identify the missing MsRdpClient classes and interfaces from MsTscAx.dll; done means those documented APIs are represented consistently with the existing Remote Desktop API.
