Windows user here, please don’t shoot me

I’m in need of a remote desktop solution that works without a monitor. I’ve tried AnyDesk, TeamViewer, and TightVNC.

All of the stuff I have need of using has a GUI client or dedicated software, but I’m about to be away from home for a couple weeks and I’m worried it might shit out on me for one reason or another and need some manual input (any one who has ever used a computer knows that this happens sometimes)

I have OpenVPN on my router and that’s how I’m accessing everything, so a local solution will work, and it would be nice, but not necessary, if it’s got an Android client as well

I have Windows 10 Home so I can’t use remote desktop that’s built into windows without installing a cracked pro version of window.

    You can buy a copy of Pro on a key reseller for like 20 bucks, I would highly recommend doing so.

    Remmina should cover your use cases, as it has options for many protocols including RDP. I use Remmina on my Linux machines and all my Windows machines just use RDP since they are all pro.

    Remmina, since it’s using RDP, should be able to connect with no monitor.
