Anydesk on Ubuntu does not save Unattended Access Security Setting

Question

I tried to enable unattended access by:

1. Run Anydesk as root user: sudo anydesk
2. Go to Settings -> Security
3. Check Enable unattended access checkbox
4. Set password and click OK button
   

But after OK button clicking Unattended Access settings have not been changed:

Also, connecting to this PC remotely shows a message that connection should be accepted on the other side.

Is there another way I could configure unattended access in ubuntu?

Answer 1

1. I've edited anydesk config file:

   sudo vi /etc/anydesk/system.conf

   changing value of one of its parameters from 0 to 1:

   ad.security.interactive_access=1

2. Opened Anydesk by unprivileged user

3. Enabled unattended access and set password

As a result, it became enabled:

Updated: In current Anydesk 5.5.5 version run in terminal:

$ anydesk-global-settings

Then enter your current user password and set Unattended access. Now it saves it.
