## Enable session on login screen
To enable remote session when the host is on login page the **Allow locked Remote desktop** extension must be installed in gnome instance:
```console
sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-manager
```
The extension manager is called **Extension** in the GUI.

Extension to be installed: [Allow locked remote desktop ](https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4338/allow-locked-remote-desktop/ ).
## Bypass GDM login screen
Gnome RDP is not available when a Gnome session is not started. To automatic enable RDP at boot:
1. Enable automatic login: Settings -> Users -> Automatic Login ON
2. Remove keyring password. When automatic login is enabled, the keyring is not unlocked with user's password and RDP password are set randomly. To avoid this:
- Open "Password and keys"
- Right click on "login" -> Change password
- Set an empty password
