Does anyone have any clue what happened? More important, Can I recover the missing files and folders? Yes, but I wasn't sure of the cause because I had folders with both files and folders in them, so with Nemo you can easily believe you select some files, but there is a unexpected folder too in the...

But was this on NTFS or Ext4 partitions ? Because I guess it may be harder with NTFS
More than 1 hour 30 minutes to search for png files in my documents (250000 files) and I killed the process

Hello I want to ask why sometimes while nemo is searching, it displays a progression wheel and sometimes not ... with consequence, when we believe it is over we move files from the result window, for example sorted by size, to another place, and after this we must do it again because other files hav...

Hello

I ask this because in mu cas with opera I guess it may cause some problems if I only copy the files with Nemo, I know that in the past Opera had some sort of special protected folder or file and the simple copy was not able to restore the profile ...

If there is a real question in here, that you would like help with, you will have to word it better. It's your computer, so of course you are the one who allowed Cinnamon to write 1.6 GiB to disk. There is no one else around. I see you ve put this topic in trash as it asked a real question, questio...

hello I ve noticed some weird things with my USB device using Ventoy with LM 21.1 iso, some inconstant trouble as when starting Nemo, Cinnamon was restarting in degraded mode, but this was at the beginning, it is now finished Now what I see is that after click to start LM 21.1, the startup display p...

[...] Contains a newly created file from the contents of the folder copied to folder 3 ----This one is the problem There are NO links in this folder - nor is this folder a link. FWIW any symlinks in folders are deleted as part of the process I had noticed that sort of weird behaviour with Nemo, beh...

What is rarely told is that synchronisation doesn't work with NTFS ... I ve recently tried rsync and was surprised to see that the files that should have been deleted on the source, were not, and then I remembered that from some applications it was not possible to delete files on NTFS neither

Be careful with security tricks For security in the past I never used a mail client, only the web sites of Yahoo, Gmail etc and this brought bad conséquences, trouble in my life, I lost some personnes because I ve lost some emails, incoming and also not sent because of these webpages that are not al...

It is done now, this check was enabled, thanks a lot

It checks very too often and we have not the advantage because when connection is lost I never get an information, a warning ... so I stop it

My DNS request logs show this

it is far worse than Windows and its malwares Well, then the solution is simple. Dump Linux, install Windows and live happily ever after. Simple comme bonjour. :mrgreen: System monitor on my machine, reports only 270 MB written by Cinnamon, by the way. After an hour of use. I can add something abou...

It's all file operations done through the GUI. If you copied or moved a file, its there. Which GUI ? I use nemo to copy files, you mean that every Byte copied by me with Nemo (generally) is added to this count under cinnamon line in system manager ? And is it the same for the internet browsers whic...

Now after logout login and 1/2 hour it is 8 kiB writed by Cinnamon .... it is totally anything

All that was disturbing me on Windows and that motivated me to quit for Linux, was all these unexpected behaviours, but with some tweaks it was relatively easy to get rid of them, some applications were even specialized in this. With Linux the surprise is total, we go from surprise to surprise and t...

Who allow cinnamon to write 1.6 GiB on disk ? not me
it is far worse than Windows and its malwares

I hesitate in fact with a VPN because the problem is Linux, no DNS resolver with encryption here is clearly easy to configure, it let allways doubts and to be sure it works as expected we need a real advanced network monitoring tool, but those which exist are very complicated to use, the more simple...
