GNOME Shell Extension: Allow locked Remote Desktop

The solution below is for problem with screen lock and the new GNOME Remote Desktop in Ubuntu 22.04 that allows RDP (and legacy VNC) protocol for remote desktop sharing. If someone is physically near your your computer they will see your activities on the connected monitor and thus be able to collect sensitive information.

You will need a GNOME Shell extension to solve this problem.

First, install install gnome-shell-extension-manager with this command:

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-manager

The open the newly installed app called Extension in the GUI. Within this app, search for and install the Allow locked Remote Desktop GNOME Shell extension.

Now you will be able to remotely connect to this computer even when the screen is locked. You will still need to be logged in locally first.
