Hi,
I installed this two days back with USB. Worked fine till yesterday evening. Got stuck while I was watching youtube. Switched the system off and restarted. Getting following msg:
:unable to launch "cinnamon-session-cinnamon" X session ---
"cinnamon-session-cinnamon" not found; falling back to default session.
when "okay" button is pressed, the screen goes blank. Using linux for the first time.
What should I do now ?
Solved:Mint 18.3 Cinnamon 64 bit crashed

If this method is used, will it erase our setup Preferences and require using Timeshift to get them back?administrollaattori wrote: ⤴Wed Apr 18, 2018 5:47 am viewtopic.php?t=156684Code: Select all

Perhaps Aptik would be a safer way to restore the Preferences we have setup?
And if this has been done, would it not be best to delete all prior Timeshift backups and start all over?
