Is there a more lightweight solution? Like, some ssh frontend? I'd like to help my mom cleaning up her Windows computer because she's not very tech savvy. I can of course just screen share on some messaging app but it'd save so much time if I could have control.

I'm not going to be reacting to answers advising me to install a Windows esque distro on her computer.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
