Somehow, and having in consideration that this tool is designed for LXDE, this is the only solution working for me on i3WM. Now, everytime I wish to commit some changes to the 'Security Options' from within AnyDesk's main window, I get a small window asking for the user's password, after which I can change everything. Installing lxpolkit now provides a Graphic User Interface to insert the proper elevated user password in order to gain access to the privileges I couldn't reach before. I have read there's something related to polkit or policykit, which I don't have on my i3WM system and that's why I can't run graphic super user requests a la gksudo.īasically, after doing some research on my own, both on the net and this site, I got into the lxpolkit tool, among a bunch of other stuff related to policy kit and these things. I have also tried with the answers to this question: Anydesk on Ubuntu does not save Unattended Access Security Setting with similar results. My terminal responds with: Setting the password requires administrator privileges and an installed service. Once I use this suggested solution: echo mynewpassword | sudo anydesk -set-password I have seen this question, Cannot access security panel from anydesk and while the provided answers may help a lot, I am facing a different issue. When I run anydesk as a normal user, all the Security options are greyed out and I can't unlock it by clicking on the ' Unlock Security Settings' link. I mean, if I run sudo anydesk it works and allow me to do the changes needed to allow the unattended login but once I close anydesk, it does not work for a normal user session.

I am an i3wm user and I'd like to use AnyDesk unattended login but I can't enable it without super user privileges via sudo. Please also note: The expected solution should be related to AnyDesk and i3WM, no 'NoMachine', VNC, TeamViewer or any other remote desktop solutions. Please note: parts of this question comes from my opened thread on reddit.
