N8xman I'm not aware of any connection changes in the latest version. Is this happening to all your Host PCs currently? If so, are they all on the same, shared network?

No, not all host PCs. Just clients where the client machine has 3 monitors.
If I remember correctly, in the spring there was an update wherein the update notes said that it made screen blanking available for more users. In my environment we always had the ability to use screen blanking; maybe it's a different license type. When this update rolled out, there were two consequences if screen blanking was turned on: 1) A laggy mouse cursor and 2) The client user would have more monitor windows than the host machine had monitors. The latter was seen as a positive change.
I taught the users how to remove "extra" monitors (they appeared in the Windows 10 display settings dialog), but there were a few who grew to enjoy this change (or bug as it were).
The "extra monitors" thing did appear on several computers in our domain. Not all or even most.
