Issue with updating Telegram Desktop

Post by yasmich »

Hi everyone,

Since Telegram introduced folders inside group chats, when accessing from the desktop and try to post something I get an error message inviting me to update telegram going to their official page.
When downloading the flatpak file and trying to open it, I get an error message that says it is already installed.
The version I use is Telegram desktop 4.2.4 and Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon

Also, using the update manager and refreshing nothing about telegram is to be seen.

Thank you for your help!

Hello.
when accessing from the desktop and try to post something I get an error message inviting me to update telegram going to their official page.
Are you sure that is an error message. Please post the exact wording.

I do not have to explicitly update Flatpaks. They update automatically via the Update Manager.

To see what Flatpaks you have installed type this in a terminal:

Code: Select all

flatpak list
To see what commands you can apply to Flatpaks type this in a terminal:

Code: Select all

flatpak --help
