In our world with many security issues the idea of updating asap isn't wrong but as the OP says it shouldn't be forced upon us, And the problem lies with Firefox because after an update the program...
As far as I know that is normal Windows behavior: it doesn't take other OS in account. So you have to fix it by booting in Ubuntu with the startup usb/DVD you used in the first place. A way to do...
The only reason not to use the Edge browser is that it would attain a large part of the market and then it would introduce features that were limited to their browser and then they could force...
Well of course you can try to solve the problem and that will be more satisfying than a reinstall but then I can add the following: your problem seems to be linked with the display manager. So go to...
The information provided doesn't allow a concrete answer but if I were in your situation I would make a USB bootable medium from the Windows side and reinstall. Personally I had a good experience...
It's often difficult to understand the real question. So there are no problems with the 20.04 iso but why are you asking advice how to connect the 19.04 version that you upgraded and didn't work,...
In this world it's an illusion to think we have privacy, and certainly not in the google universe. Facebook or MS are also bad so the only question is: what is my advantage of sharing data with other...
Recently I switched to KDE and it has a reason that's rather long so I'll spare you the reading. KDE is user-friendlier than other versions and that compensates for me the fact that it uses more...
You might be interested in the state of your drive and then there is this https://www.fosslicious.com/2019/08/check-ssd-health-in-xubuntu.html It's about ssd and xubuntu but actually the info is...
Or change the boot order back to where it was starting with the HDD, that would also work. And it's cleaner, avoiding accidents later.
Some people have had issues with the 2020 LTS release. Actually, for people using (a previous version of) the OS the upgrade doesn't show yet and if you force it then it tells you that it's still in...
One reason remains valid over time: Linux desktop simply has no important market share so there are fewer attempts to break a system that doesn't have a lot of followers. You can make your system...
After reading that relatively negative review on Distrowatch I decided to upgrade (by force) a 19,10 Laptop and see for myself. It works flawless (not that I tested a lot) but there is no problem...
Well, if you play often, you get better. The problem with a chess engine is its tactical ability, it simply calculates fast and with no errors. scid allows import of games of good players. (see chess...
I used to play chess, and with the confinement due to that virus I spent some time with a front like scid and an engine like stockfish. i even ended up with the latest version, stockfish 11 but it...
You may be right, because my experience dates from a few years ago, but as an example in that time the standard was to download packages and never purge them so that eventually one would run out of...
The same hardware/software and different experience? Look at disk space. Maybe a partition is (nearly) full. Don't install extra software, that won't help.
I've tried out most of the distributions, including Manjaro and at a certain point I experienced problems. Ubuntu is way more stable than Arch-based distributions. Of course these problems have...
in my experience there are two conditions in order to upgrade with minimal risks; the first is to keep your data safe and if you use cloud storage that is a big plus. Less safe is a separate /home...
This issue seems solved with the last upgrade. now - 19.04 - fstrim runs in the background and login works fine. Mind - the hardware is identical.

Assuming you can't download or else you probably wouldn't use the service osdisk it still pays to examine if your media is good and there is a possibility like...
You can always restore Windows. Simply download the iso of your version and boot from it. Activation is not an issue if the hardware is the same. The problem is that it may delete the Ubuntu boot...
Well, looking at the post in askubuntu there are two issues: there is a locale setting that gives a lot of warnings so please address that issue first like in...
You're looking at it from the opposite side. First, there should be a need to do something and then you collect hardware and then you try to achieve whatever you wanted to do. Here, you say that you...
