I want to connect Google Colab to a local runtime. I have done all the instructions and started my jupyter server.
However, when I pasted the URL to the text bar, the CONNECT button remained disabled. Does anyone know why?

Some background
My computer fan goes crazy when I am using Google Colab, it definitely uses local resources somehow. I am running very long processes (over 4 hours). Yesterday, it occurred to me that I was disconnected, I thought my session had crashed since I stoped receiving the status updates of my task's progress bar. But then after clicking on Connect to a hosted runtime I was able to reconnect to that session and just interact with it fine. Given that Google Colab uses some of my local resource, I looking for a way to put the client application on halt for a little bit.
Question
How to manually disconnect from my remote session without crashing/terminating it? Is that even possible?
Note:
There is an answer for Does Google Colab stay connected when I close my browser? that says
The current cell will continue executing once you close your browser, but the outputs will not end up in the notebook in Drive.
I would be fine if I am able to leave the session running remotely but not being able to access the outputs on the notebook, given that I save the result on google drive when the process is done. So, not been able to see the output on the notebook would not be an issue for me.
From my google drive, I'm trying to connect google colab to my google drive without success.
Please, find below the steps that I took:

connect more apps
typed 'colab' in the search bar and I didn't find the app.
Thank you in advance for helping me out.
While in Drive, click on New button (marked with a + New) on left-hand side and select More > Connect more apps
Then, by using the magnifying glass icon to "Search apps" and typing in colab, it returns no results
You are trying in correct direction, but Google has removed that option from Google Drive, you have to go via Google Colab itself, and save to Colab Notebooks Folder.
From there you can open them into Google colab, but creating new notebooks directly from Google Drive is not available as it used to be in past few years
Step 1:
Sign into the site thru the link https://colab.research.google.com.
From there, there will be a Google Drive tab with the ability to create new notebooks.
Step 2:
Then, next to the notebook, to the direct right of the Last opened column there is a small folder icon and clicking on that will bring you to your Google drive folder called My Drive > Colab Notebooks
I've been trying to connect to a hosted runtime on Google Colab as usual. Until now, it worked perfectly, but for some reason right now everytime I press 'CONNECT' it shows up 'No backends available' and doesn't connect to a run time. Tried it in incognito mode as well and also tried different browsers but still this problem persists.

Clicking on the SSH button in Google Compute Engine immediately closes the window after opening the window for a moment.
Having the issue in Latest Chrome and Edge on Windows 10.
Any help, please..
Thank you.
I'm not able to reproduce your issue, Have you tried to reproduce using Incognito window?
If you still observe issues, try capturing HAR while SSHing into instance and upload the HAR to check browser interaction with the GCP site. Instructions on how to capture HAR is documented here
I have downloaded google drive and after its installation when google drive icon pops out for sign in, it gives me internet connection error. however my internet connection is working fine. i have tried it multiple times but failed. Same was the case with one drive sign in. Is there any problem with my connection settings? help me please
This is because your system uses PROXY to connect to the internet.
Try to change the proxy settings.
I would suggest trying to completely quit out of Google Drive and restarting the application. If that doesn't work, then reinstall Google Drive.
