Click the Download 64-bit Version button (or choose the 32-bit version, depending on your system), and run the set-up package.Setting Up and Using Chrome Remote Desktop Cool Tip: Windows 8 users should check out our guides to enable the remote desktop app in Windows 8 and using it.
Step 1: Install the Chrome Remote Desktop Chrome app from the Web Store. I don’t need to tell you that this has to be done in Google Chrome and that you need to do this on the computer you want to control (but I said it anyway). Step 2: The app will be found in your Chrome Desktop Apps menu. Step 3: Install the Android app from the Google Play Store. Now that the Android app is installed, you’re getting closer to enjoying all the benefits of Chrome Remote Desktop on your Android device. There are, however, a few more steps to go through before you’ll be able to do that. Step 4: Launch the app on your Android device. You will find it next to all of the other installed apps if you have disabled the auto-creation of homescreen shortcuts (which ideally you should to avoid the clutter on your homescreen). Step 5: You will be told that no computers are currently registered. This is your cue to return to your computer. Step 6: Start the Chrome Desktop app from the respective menu on your computer, that we’ve talked about a bit earlier. You’ll be asked to grant the app permission to your computer. If you’ve done everything as told and you’re the owner of both devices, there’s no reason why it wouldn’t be safe to do it. Step 7: Once you’ve granted access, in the next screen you’ll see the possibilities Chrome Remote Desktop offers. Namely, you can control your own computer (which is the direction we’ve been following) or provide remote assistance. To do the latter, click Get Started under the respective section. If you want someone to control your computer, click Share in the next screen. You’ll be provided with an access code, which you’ll give to the other person, allowing them to control your computer. If you want to control someone else’s computer, you’ll click access and input the code the other person has received by doing the above. Either way, both of you will need to have the Chrome Desktop app installed. Now let’s get back to controlling your computer from your Android device. Step 9: Click Get Started in the second section, the My Computers one. Step 10: Now, click Enable remote connections.
