What causes Chrome Remote Desktop not to Work?Īfter doing our extensive survey and gathering reports from the people, we came to the conclusion that this issue occurred due to several different reasons. In this solution, we will go through all the possible causes and the remedies to fix them. Either the utility failed to load at all or some clicks or scrolls were not recognized in the application. This usually occurred in the chrome application.
However, several users faced issues where they were unable to connect to the other computer using the remote desktop application. Google also released a web version of the utility recently. Instead, this utility is available in Extensions store in Chrome and makes you download a mini Chrome application. Innovation in the utility is that you don’t have to download a full application. This is like all other remote desktop applications where you have to pair two computers using a PIN and then initiate the sharing. There you have it, you now have a functioning Chrome Remote Desktop to your Ubuntu Box.Google, following the footsteps of other tech giants, have released a utility named “ Chrome Remote Desktop”. This appears to be a graphical interface of sorts, sort of like the flavors of KDE or GNOME. The icons are different, the experience, everything. Unity – looks like a completely different OS. Actually, I think the above selection (default) is just whatever you pick between ‘ubuntu’ session and ‘unity’ session. Ubuntu – I use this most often, looks like VNC ties to this instance too. All the windows look the same, and the same settings seem to apply. I’ve been using the 2nd option – “Ubuntu”
Once you select the session, that’s the same session you connect in with every time. Remoting in from external shows this on first boot up: Has to do with the different environments, one environment is strictly for when you’re sitting physically in front of the computer, the other is the remote session stuff over things like VNC. Just have to get used to picking what session you want, Xsession, and I think the other was was regular ‘ubuntu’ session or something. BUT on a physical box, i’m connected to it even as I write this without any issues. Sudo /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktop -start
