Fabian,
Tell us (me) more about your computer. Temporarily switch your computer's default language to English (if needed). Then run the dxdiag program, click on "Save All Information", and send me the resulting text file. What I'm primarily looking for is the information about the graphics options. Is there a discrete graphics card? And what version is the graphics driver. But it will also tell me what CPU is in the computer, how much memory your computer has, and the exact version of Windows it is running. (I'm only interested in the information on the System and Display tabs, you can edit the rest out of the text file, or not).
And how is this remote computer accessed? Do you use a remote desktop client? Some other application? Is ChimeraX running in a virtual machine? All of that could make a difference.

Hi Fabian,
The ChimeraX download page recommends using computers that are relatively new (e.g. last 4 years) so it may be that the 2016 Windows system is just too old. I don't know specifically, however, since I don't have that type of computer to try myself.
Were you able to run ChimeraX (any other version) on that same system before? Have you been using it for Chimera? If Chimera still works there you may have to keep using it instead of ChimeraX, unfortunately.
Sorry about the difficulties,
Elaine

Dear Elaine,
When we try to run ChimeraX 1.3 on server 2016 windows on a computer farm (for teaching purposes), nothing happens, despite that the installation worked perfectly well.
Any suggestion what we could do?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Fabian
