I have an Acer Chromebox CXM1 running the latest version (V129.0.6668.99) and I'm trying to remotely access it from a Windows computer. I've tried Chrome Remote Desktop, TeamViewer, and AnyDesk, but none provide full control, like rebooting or managing the system entirely. Also, these apps require me to grant access directly on the Chromebox, which defeats the purpose of remote access.

Does anyone know a way to achieve full, uninterrupted remote control over a Chromebox? Any help would be appreciated!

Why do you need this "full, uninterrupted, remote control"?

Thank you

We've already looked into Chrome Remote Desktop. But when we sign out the user, we are unable to control that device. We really need to access the device whenever we want.

The Chromebox will serve as a print server, that's probably it's only use. We want to set up unattended access to the device. No screen will be connected to the device. We want to reboot the system, log in with a different user..
