Getting a black screen with AnyViewer remote software? (headless client pc) (alien.top)

I have been using AnyDesk for a while, but it requires an active monitor on the the client PC i.e. no headless connection.

So I gave AnyViewer a go, and while it initially works without an active monitor, it still gives me a black screen if I reboot the client PC. Anyone know a solution to this?

Make sure that the display settings on the client PC are correctly set, even if there is no physical monitor connected. Sometimes, the operating system may require a valid display setting to correctly display the desktop.
