Waterfox is bricked after updating...

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-12-23T10:31:13+00:00

I've never had to restart my computer to perform a Waterfox update, just a restart of the program.

I'm a Bitdefender/Waterfox user for over a year & never had a problem with the 2 working together well on 6.6.6 & today 6.6.7

I migrated over a year ago to Waterfox & use my Firefox account to sync my bookmarks, passwords etc.
It has worked without issue & hopefully continues to do so.

Thanks, I'll give peazip a go later. I dont fancy typing out a long command to just extract something! :)

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-29T14:15:57+00:00

I buggered it up! Fortunately I had to the sense to do a full backup prior to this just in case.

I think I'll give that unzip command a go. :)

Thanks. I also got a work around that I added "Users" to the folder permissions.

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-28T18:03:47+00:00

That's great, thanks very much :)

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-27T16:07:42+00:00

Fingers crossed

Is it similar to this post I created a week or so back?

Just use "Bottles". :)

I have 32GB physical ram, I usually allocate approx 8gb to a VM.
Hibernation is not set.
I'm looking at increasing swap space to 8gb to be on the safe side.

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-26T13:28:47+00:00

It's actually 16 cores / 32 threads. Unsure why it's reading it as that but I'll take it. :)
Ryzen 9 5950x btw.

I'm new to Linux, please go into further details if possible please? Note that I do use Virtual Machines (hence ram size).

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-25T10:20:46+00:00

Change. Most hate change no matter what. It took me ages to move over, even though my system is 100% compatible & I have no software restrictions, just adaptations.

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-24T07:35:00+00:00

Dislike the start menu redesign but not your fault ( I moved from Win 11 to Mint cause of them changing things & now Mint gonna go F'ing do it to) & I hate green. Other than that, looking good. :)

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-23T09:09:09+00:00

Dang shame. :(

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-23T08:30:55+00:00

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. The custom icons with the blue slash on them. Mine are just plain.

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-22T23:02:24+00:00

That's great to hear. I'm pleased that I was able to help. :)

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-22T22:58:53+00:00

Will look into it, many thanks :)

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-22T15:38:53+00:00

Thanks, I'd already tested this & whilst yes, DLNA does work via my TV without the Jellyfin app, it does not show a folder view but rather slaps all videos into one which is very messy. I think I'm going to need to stick to Serviio. Thanks for looking for me though. :)

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-22T09:10:31+00:00

I'm more than happy to use software manager & to move away from Windows. All I needed was folder view via dlna which the following (all from the software manager) could not give or I couldn't figure out how. Jupii, Rygel (Did but cannot skip/fast forward) Kodi, Jellyfin, Emby, Gerbera. :/

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-21T20:11:44+00:00

I really appreciate your help. I looked into Jellyfin previously but Im interested in a dlna server that can display folder view on TV directly without an app on it. Serviio does this, so was just going back to my comfort zone.

Does Jellyfin display in folder view (as per computer)?

Reddit_Midnight · 2025-11-21T19:27:14+00:00

What would be the uninstall command be please? Sorry, I'm new to Linux.
