As you give no further info: - does you player support CUE sheets at all ? Are you aware that CUEs are potential threats? Any file coming up as EXEC without your consent is potentially dangerous, see GNOME CUE backdoor. Now, who declared your CUEs EXECUTABLE in the first place ? That should not be t...

I assume you were using a SanDisk device (e.g. from the U3 Cruzer series); part of their "service" is to copy the U3 framework app to every device the USB stick is attached to. It is annoying, at least. Just delete it.

Unmount the card and eject it. Shut down your laptop completely (no warm reboot). Restart, when desktop is loaded, re-insert and check card access. If that does not work, the card is probably toast ("bad superblock" or similar).

... and Firefox has recently raised them to the max, and is therefore changing yours to protect you. Nope, strict. And since when is a revert which allows to (insecurely!) SAVE PASSWORDS / ALLOW SINGLE SIGN IN as well as ACTIVATE AUTOFILL and STORE COOKIES an effort to protect me? That's poppycock ...

That may all well be, but how does Librefox fare against Firefox when it comes to the one big biggy that keeps me WELL away from Firefox ... the constant reverting of user-made settings with each and every minor "update" ??? I mean, come on, the FF122 update not only reset my config yet ag...

Unmount / eject it. Power down your rig (no soft reboot). Start again, try accessing SD. If error consists, the SD is toast.

... when I used Windows for 20 years. Maybe it's different now? Do they have an app store? Even worse. They have Windows "S Mode", the default for most new notebooks, etc. where you are simply not able to install ANY other software than that in the Store (safety, performance, yada, yada) ...

Meinen die Entwickler ich lade mirr jetzt nen ISO Runter und Installiere es von Hand Neu und lösche alle meine Daten oder was ? Wer seine Daten (egal ob unter Windows oder Linux) nicht sowieso ständig gesichert hat, sollte erst gar keinen Rechner haben. Punkt. Abweichende Speicherorte für eigene Da...

I may not be of assistance here but I really have to ask why people would install MySQL after the majority of people, tools and apps previously using it suddenly switched to MariaDB or PostgreSQL. There was a reason for that, after all. Just like one does not simply travel through Moria, one does no...

I doubt HIKVision stuff will run under anything else than Windows as its firmware relies on being able to "phone home". WINE/Linux is far too restrictive and will not allow snooping. Don't forget that HIKVision is a CCP puppet and signs responsible for various blatant privacy intrusions, e...

Grapejuice automatically installs Wine to your system and then installs Roblox. However, the Roblox installer tells me I don't have enough disk space. Last thing I heard was that Roblox don't work on Linux anymore because the anti cheat system blocks Wine. See also https://forums.linuxmint.com/view...

... I heart bad things about the company who wrote WPS Office. Is it secure to use ... or is there any data transferred via internet? WPS is from KingSoft, a company which serves (and provides tools for) the Chinese government. Yes, data is relayed to dubious servers (however that is the case with ...

Chip is a MediaTek MT7610U.

Might as well just take down the forum site then. I just wanted to know whether this was important and trusted, by other mint users. I see its security, but I didn't know what MOK is. The perfect example for why we are here : you are unable to look up stuff on your own and have to be told what to d...

the scanner is old and it has a driver in the net for xp i tried wine to install it, it installs the software of the scanner but it does not detect it Hold in mind that Win7 dropped the former scanner driver background and so older scanners were not supported anymore. OP is actually trying to get a...

Thousands of people worldwide run POL without problems but you claim it's crap.
Which implies that the true problem is actually located between keyboard and chair, right?

I find it laughable that folks go on a hiccups course about different browsers, OSs and such when it is VERY obvious that the quoted VORO website is absolutely FUBAR; a buggy, badly scripted mess that causes dozens of warnings when tried to verify (duplicate IDs, double BODY element, trailing slashe...

What prereqs do you think I should add? Well, you *could* help to rule out basic problems, like ... is the adapter identified at all? As what and where? Do you have any info on which chipset is really physically present (as sales blurbs are unreliable as eff) ? etc. etc. etc. TL;DR: If you don't ca...

As you can see from my signature I have a very strong opinion when it comes to music libraries under Linux: they are *all* trash, period. Worst of all is Lollypop which required over five hours to DELETE it's data on my files, effectively ruining a test SSD (reproducible behavior, no glitch) by step...
