When copying files from Mac to PC using Microsoft Remote Desktop I prefer to share a subfolder, not the entire drive.
Here's how:
In Remote Desktop on your Mac select your PC in the "My Desktops" section.
Click the "Edit" button (pencil icon).
In the popup click the "Redirection" button (folder icon; see image below).
