Today, I will teach you a method to use Google Cloud's RDP desktop for free. Login to Google Cloud, activate cloud shell, and run a code to access the RDP desktop. The desktop is available for 30-120 minutes and can be recreated if disconnected. The IP location may vary. GCP accounts can be used for this method.

Today I will teach everyone a method, to get a free Google Cloud RDP desktop.

First, log in to Google Cloud
Link: https://cloud.google.com/?hl=zh-cn
Activate cloud shell in the top right corner

After successful activation, directly execute the following code

docker run -p 8080:80 dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc

Click: Preview on the webpage

Now, you should be able to see the RDP desktop, OK, let's open the browser, the speed test surprisingly shows 1.5G!! Fake

installation is also okay, the IP is fixed.

Notes

This desktop is valid for about 30-120 minutes; closing the shell window will disconnect the RDP desktop, but you can rebuild it by re-executing the docker command, if there is a port conflict, you can modify the command port like 8081;
The RDP desktop IP for each account may not be in the same location, some are in the Netherlands, some are in the United States, I'm not sure why this is;
Currently, GCP accounts are all usable for testing, you can keep creating containers endlessly, permanently getting it for free!
There may be some latency, can be used as a backup.
