So this is the second time this has happened. I fresh install, everything works fine for the first 5 reboots. Then upon reboot, I cannot open the file manager or terminal, and my audio driver is gone? Sound no longer works. I really want to use Ubuntu, I love it so far in the past 2-4 hours, but man, this is killing me. I cannot open terminal OR file manager.

I also can no longer watch videos on YouTube. Software Updater app seems to be unable to connect for some reason.

Switching from proprietary nvidia driver to open source allows my sound to come back.

Wifi adapter is also not working well...

I think this could be related to Chrome remote desktop. I'm on a mission to remove it.

I had the exactly same problem. Yes, it is because of Chrome Remote Desktop. It is necessary to uninstall. Try accessing a virtual terminal using ctrl+alt+f4 (this worked in my case) or using emacs eshell, and use the following command:

sudo apt-get autoremove chrome-remote-desktop
reboot

This worked for me.
