Is there a more lightweight solution? Like, some ssh frontend? I'd like to help my mom cleaning up her Windows computer because she's not very tech savvy. I can of course just screen share on some messaging app but it'd save so much time if I could have control.

I'm not going to be reacting to answers advising me to install a Windows esque distro on her computer.

I use Remmina to take over Windows PCs but since it's RDP it will lock the device. If you want the other person to be able to follow along I recommend rustdesk.

    What does "lock" mean here? Would her screen turn dark or freeze with RDP?
