Thanks for all the suggestions so far guys. Any use in removing both then starting with just XMing? (Since it had an option to install a special version of PuTTY with it.) I first installed PuTTY, then downloaded XMing. My 'X Display Location is set to Localhost:0, so I'll retry it tonight using your settings. Please edit in the output from systemctl status whateverthatserviceiscalled. This is what I've been trying, and I get the cannot open display error. Just set the default resolution and start up mode to GUI (needing sign-on) in raspi-config and then connect to the VNC server from your client. Normally you would set the RPi to auto boot to desktop and then use either ssh (console only) or VNC (Desktop GUI) on the remote machine. If manual startup is chosen, then how does one actually start the GUI startx does not work. Make sure Xming is running on the PC, then type the X program followed by "&" this runs the program in a background process, returning control to the command line so you can launch more programs. A GUI can be installed on the Octoprint Pi by running 'sudo /scripts/install-desktop' After the GUI is installed, you can choose to have it automatically start on boot, or not. sudo systemctl start vncserver Copy If the service says it’s failed, try checking the status of it to find out where. You must use the compatible app from RealVNC. Starting the VNC Server on the Raspberry Pi We can now test to see if our new VNC service is working by running the following command to start it. Before connecting, select the Connection / SSH / X11 options on the left menu, tick the "Enable X11 forwarding" box and set the "X display location" to localhost:0.0 - now connect and login. On your Raspberry Pi, sign in to VNC Server using your new RealVNC account credentials: On the device you’ll use to take control, download VNC Viewer. You cannot run startx to get the desktop for that you need VNC, RDP or another connection. If not, and you’re already booted into the graphical desktop, select Menu > Preferences > Raspberry Pi Configuration > Interfaces and. If you’re already using an older version of VNC Server, restart it. In fact, if you are running multiple monitors on your PC you can put Pi windows across the monitors. First, run the following commands to make sure you have the latest version: sudo apt-get update. When you click connect, Windows should ask you to confirm connection, as the identity of the target computer will not be clear. The easiest solution to remote access a Raspberry Pi with the full desktop experience is to use VNC, which is included by default on Raspberry Pi OS and works.

Launch Remote Desktop Connection in Windows (W8.x and later can simply search for 'rdp' to find this) and in the Computer field, input the IP address of your Pi.
