    i have NX installed on Ubuntu 18 and Windows 10.

    I can connect from Windows 10 to Ubuntu 18 successful.

    Everything works.

    The only issue is: from my NX connection if i click on the google chrome icon, the browser window will open on my Ubuntu machine but I cannot see it in my NX connection.

    This doesn’t happen with any other GUI application like Firefox or Office Libre or terminal.

    It looks like you are connecting to a virtual desktop as the same user, which is the physical desktop owner on this Ubuntu. At the same time Chrome Browser is already running on this physical display. So there are two sessions logged in with the same credentials. Chrome doesn’t let you create two instances of the browser in two different sessions as the same user.

    So to avoid the problem – just close Google Chrome on the physical display or create a virtual session as a different user.
