Slicer 4.9 minimum OpenGL requirements have been increased. Does this answer your questions? [https://issues.slicer.org/view.php?id=4252](https://issues.slicer.org/view.php?id=4252)
If not, then please write exact version of your Slicer, operating system, and remote desktop application.

The link from `lassoan` above describes the issue: Windows RDP client does not support newer OpenGL versions, and so Slicer crashes – unfortunately without a useful error message yet. The suggestion is to try VNC or NoMachine. I can confirm NoMachine works with recent Slicer builds from a Mac client to a Linux host. I haven’t tried it with a Windows client, but it should probably work fine.

I can confirm that VNC and TeamViewer works on Windows, too. Windows Remote Desktop works as well, but you need to start Slicer before connecting to the computer (using a batch file, as described [here](https://issues.slicer.org/view.php?id=4252#c14081)).
