Work with remote server GUI (linux and Windows)

Programs you need to install:

- Xming server https://sourceforge.net/projects/xming/
- Putty https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html

Steps: 

1- Run Xming (should show in the notification area, next to the clock)
2- Use putty to connect to the remote server with X11 enabled


3- Once you logged in, run any program through the terminal and its window should show up in your end. (e.g. to run chrome type google-chrome)
