it was working fine until the last update, stopped working at all since.

I had an issue with the mouse pointer being invisible. That was because I didn't have a physical mouse attached to the host. Turning on 'mouse keys' in the Windows settings on the host fixed the issue. It is not as refined as their desktop client but it is more than adequate. Excited to see future improvements.
