Have an updated Windows 10 Pro client machine running with the latest x2goclient version, configured to ssh on port 22 to 1. with a RSA/DSA key, auto login via SSH Agent or default SSH key on and a shared folder without filename encoding, but automount and 'use ssh to tunnel filesystem through firewalls' checked.
