Setup Chrome RDP on Ubuntu - NicolasLoew/wiki GitHub Wiki

Installation:

1. Download & Install Chrome RDP Client from Google Website

2. Install Chrome RDP Browser Extension

3. Enable remote desktop connections by opening the Chrome remote desktop extension and clicking Turn on. If the button is not visible, create the Chrome remote desktop configuration directory: mkdir ~/.config/chrome-remote-desktop. Then reopen the remote desktop extension.

4. Install xfce4 desktop environment (sometimes only one user can access one desktop environment at the same time) sudo apt-get install xfce4 (choose GDM3 for display manager)

5. Disable Automatic login (so Ubuntu Display / X Window can be used by remote user and isn't occupied by autologin after reboot) sudo nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf (comment out autologin and user to autologin, or disable) https://vitux.com/how-to-enable-disable-automatic-login-in-ubuntu/

6. Reboot
