Set your local computer to 1920x1080 and scaling to 125%. In out setup the remote side is a 4K TV connected to a Windows 11 NUC. The remote side is a Windows 11 desktop with no monitor connected. No more issues in Excel / Excel Teams, and also Epic. This problem is all related to scaling issues that Microsoft refuses to fix. It's also not good to mix resolutions on the local side & the remote side. If you care connecting to a computer that doesn't have a monitor attached consider an EDID adapter to make the computer think a monitor is attached and configure the resolutions to match. Not all EDID adapters support 4K. Also verify your Desktop resolution & your Active signal resolution match. Settings / Display / Advanced display settings (compare the Desktop resolution & your Active signal resolution here) / Display adapter properties for Display x / List All Modes.

Setting scaling to 125% fixed this for me.

I set it on the target monitor.
