In Synaptic check if you have wine32:i386 installed. If not, install it.

Apparently not so I have reinstalled Mint.

O a new install to SSD I have increased dpi to a level that prevents me from accessing Appearance to change it back to the default 96. Can I do this from the terminal?

Thanks for the link KM. I was hoping for a simple yes or no!

I have recently purchased a Micron MX500 SSD with a view to replacing the HDD. Micron says the SSD has AES 256-bit hardware-based encryption . I have read about problems with installing LM 20 on encrypted drives. Does this mean it would be impossible to install it on this SSD? If so, is a fix for th...

Very happy here in rural Wales with a 2G phone.

Since upgrade to Mint Mate 20 there has been a change in behaviour when opening a new window. Previously the new window always opened in the home folder. Now it opens in the same folder as the first window. Obviously any default is arbitrary but this does not make sense. Usually I want to copy to or...

Thanks antikythera. Hopefully someone knows about xapp-sn-launcher.

What are im-launcher and xapp-sn-launcher and what do they do? Can they be safely disabled?

@1nuBJim, This is probably a false error message which can be ignored. I have seen it before on my system. On checking I found that the security updates had been installed and all was well. In Update Manager look in View>History of Updates. Make a note of security updates before running the update s...

Given all the headaches it causes and the ability of M$ to simply shut everyone else out if they really wanted to.... or to leave backdoors into other OS's which might partially be what the whole new linux in windows thing is actually about....

I have reported this as a bug.

@Alfie_ca I have also occasionally seen the "Unable to install security updates" message in Update Manager after carrying out updates. However, after checking everything seems to have been updated. On reopening Update Manager it is shown as up to date on updates. I concluded, perhaps incorrectly, th...

Fires, the issue I am seeing may be related to your problem. Since upgrading to Firefox 75.0 I see this when already logged into Gmail: Gmail is having authentication problems. Some features may not work. Try logging in to fix the problem. However mail can be checked and sent as normal so it is just...

Fixed in 6.0.3.1 and 5.9.1.2.

Just to clarify: in versions 6.0.3.1 and 5.9.1.2 of what?

RichardXXX,
Try the Vivaldi browser which works with Amazon Prime and does not include the objectionable Google stuff.

Is the mail from the "family address" delivered to a "special email account"? If so this account may have been set up to store mail in Bulk unlike the others which are stored separately in their own folders.

Thanks gm10. I'll bear that in mind.

gm10, I checked and software sources does not run from mintmenu and produces the same errors in logs. However, like Timeshift, it works from Menu Bar which I have on a top panel. AUTH.
