Windows Auto Closing

Post by slixz85 »

fresh install linux mint everything works fine except every now and then a windows closes itself not sure at all what it could be. its already happened during install of programs in software manager, you would think that it wouldnt allow a close while installing stuff but it did. this would probably obviously hurt something during install.

any ideas thanks

Windows may close for several reasons but mainly if they crash for some reason or if the task for which it was opened has completed. Mintupdate for example will autoclose after an update has completed, this is by design. Your post does not provide enough information to provide a more specific answer.
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.
