I got the package name wrong.
google-chrome-stable
I never feel comfortable using the command line because of very bad past experiences with it. Twice I ended up completely destroying the installation which required complete reformat and re-install of the O.S. Many other bad experiences as well. I hope I did this right.

When was the last time your machine prompted you to fetch a new update? From the looks of it you may have problems with /tmp having odd permissions or maybe have something else mounted there, and it may have been that way for some time.
Can you browse to /tmp in Thunar and create a new file there, or does it give you an error message when you try it?

I don't recall but when checking the history it says 2024-03-21 18:00:55 which doesn't make any sense because I received updates a few days ago.
I can create a file and it gives me no error.
I did have a lot of trouble a while ago with empty ghost files being created on my desktop when sending E-mails that involved bad file permissions. Then I was advised here after everything was working fine to run some kind of command for a reason which I don't recall why that broke MX Linux that it would on boot up as root and wouldn't boot anymore under my user name. I reverted back to the previous file permissions and then my computer started working fine again.

OK, a month isn't too bad. I'm pretty sure that Chrome didn't skip v123, so I was wondering if maybe you haven't been able to upgrade packages for much longer.

When you run a command with "sudo", it runs with superuser privileges. Thus it doesn't make sense that you can create files in /tmp but the system superuser account cannot. Likewise for things that prompt for a password before they can run, like Synaptic.
/tmp should have mode 1777. In Thunar you ought to be able to find the /tmp directory, right-click it, choose Properties from the context menu, and go to the Permissions tab. It should say Owner: root (root), Group: root, and the permissions for Owner, Group, and Others should be "Read & Write" for each of them.
If that's not the case, try this:
It will list the mode and permissions for / and only print the line for /tmp.

I don't know what mode 1777 is.
tmp says: Owner: root(root) Access: Read&Write
Group: Mauser Access: Read&Write
Others Access: Read
It won't let me change the file permissions because it refuses to let me open the File System as root because there is no such option.
As for your command it says this:
Code: Select all
Mauser@mx:~
$ $ ls -l / | grep tmp
$: command not found
