1. where did you save the old snapshot?

...

I'm not sure if there is still an option to open dolphin as root, but I think there are some root actions you can use in the right click options menu.

I am a simple user, and I just hit the normal buttons on Snapshot. Why it ended up there, I don't ...

Well done sir!

It just completely disappeared.

Thanks!

Hi guys!

I was planning to migrate over to MX 23 now that it is settled and I have some time, so I made a Snapshot as suggested. Then I noticed the User Installed Programs recommendation, so I did that, and I also made a file of my Browser settings just in case.

So I thought I would make another ...

It's not a video, rather it's a link to show you what an SSD suitable for your Satellite looks like.

Thanks!

System 1: / size ~20 GiB, used ~13 GiB

This is fine tbh. 20 GiB is on the lower end for /, but if you're not using more than let's say 15 GiB there's no reason for concern. This system uses an old HDD, though, which could be replaced with a SATA SSD for much better performance. Especially on ...

Hi guys!

I run two different laptops, both are dual boot with Win. Both have big HD's so space (overall) is not a problem. Also, I am not a 'power' user.

This computer is a much older one, which was running MX 19, which I stepped up through MX 21 and then went on to MX 23 almost immediately, just ...

Hi guys!

I have a newer computer with MX21. However, today on my older computer with MX19, I ran an update and at the end it said the following:

First things first. Stop it from autostarting on startup. Just delete it's entry from Session and Startup -----> Application AutoStart tab and then uninstall should be cleaner than trying to uninstall whilst it is still loaded in ram.

Good idea, but when I checked (since I never set it up for ...
