Use Chrome? Update Your Browser Now

1. Getting it installed is convoluted, but still better than LogMeIn, because Chrome specifies "do this, on X computer" and it's clear. The LogMeIn verbiage is muddy sometimes, to where you're not sure if host or client or whatever is the machine you're on or the one you're controlling.
2. A few years ago, LogMeIn had growing pains, but solved them. Chrome has those same issues and I assume they'll get solved. Primarily, 
    Keyboard commands in Chrome will close your CRD window (Cmd-W) or exit full screen mode (ESC) rather than do whatever they would do in the app on the machine you're controlling. It's still exasperating but Chrome is working on a solution. Their temporary fix is listed under "known issues."
      However you can override this default behavior by right-clicking the Chrome Remote Desktop icon in the Applications list and choosing "Open in Window". In this mode nearly all keyboard shortcuts will be sent to your remote computer. 
    Unfortunately, that option isn't in the list, and the other options don't do it.
3. If your computer doesn't have a totally unique name (such as most of the machines here at work), it's hard to tell which is which. In playing with the app, I just logged in and controlled this computer. That I used to log in and control it. So you can get some weird recursive thing going. I thought I'd get sucked into a black hole so I got out right away.
4. At some point, going full screen with Chrome on a mac, when I esc to normal, the menu bar and application dock don't come back. I have to quit and relaunch Chrome. So that's weird when jumping between Chrome and other stuff, I have to click on the desktop to see the app dock or the menubar, and if I go back to chrome those things disappear again.
5. Bad Bug: I was futzing with it a lot last night, using my laptop to control this desktop machine. Now today, I got my work done but lots of weird stuff was going on and I rebooted a dozen times, rebooted the server, etc etc. and finally observed that my Mac Finder was crashing and relaunching quite often. I had thought other stuff was going on, but that's the primary problem. So far, the fix has been to get into my Google Drive settings (I know! I didn't even mention Google Drive until now and yet here we are!). If you go up to your menu bar, the Drive icon, pull down to preferences, select the Advanced tab, UNCHECK the box marked "Show file sync status icons and right click menu" ...not sure what that does, but it was making my Finder crash constantly. Like every 30 seconds.
