Did you try to connect without bothering with a Windows desktop? I know you said their IT claimed you needed it, but that seemed unlikely. Posted a reply last time

something like the pic below

We tried everything you posted before with no joy. It just wouldn't connect directly, and when she met with the IT department, apparently it's only possible to connect through Chrome and then using MS RD web client. But...
What you've put above has worked. It really worked. She hadn't even noticed the "Show options" on the connection window. Although the setting were the same as your screenshots, I just checked the "Use all my monitor for the remote session", and it's now working full screen. This whole situation is just so she can access the student database at home, which is the only bit of the puzzle missing.
Honestly, thank you for helping with this.
Cheers. I've tried the Parallels help and all of the options to scale/fullscreen, but I think that's actually for the Parallels window itself. The bit I'm stuck with is the remote desktop computer she's trying to connect to through Parallels.
We've just tried to see what it look like scaled up on a new Mac Display at 5k and the remote desktop window is ridiculously small. Bizarrely, if you then open the Parallels window to full screen the remote desktop window for a moment becomes full screen, but then everything blinks and it goes back to its original tiny size.
