I am looking for a solution for my students who all have Chromebooks (which are locked down).
Their opportunities will be greatly expanded if they had access to Windows-based software (Blender, Unreal Engine, 3D slicing software, etc.,).
I have access to a couple desktop machines that I could host virtual boxes on if there was some way for them to remote into them through a web browser.
Is that something that is possible, and where would I get the information to get started hosting something like that?
If not, are there any alternative solutions that do not require a paid subscription?
“Remote desktop” from google works good for what you’re trying to do I think
I thought so too, but the students are locked out altering any software on their Chromebooks
You only need to install the “host” software on the machine you’re going to share, the chromebooks only need to visit remotedesktop.google.com
Just tried, and their Google accounts do not have access to Chrome Remote Desktop unfortunately
