Just run the 3 commands and reboot

warm wigeon
#

also wait there is another problem

#

I tried installing zoom by installing the deb file from their website but once I opened the deb file I saw the software manager running to install it for me but an error happened I tried to close one of the windows of the first installation ( the installation that I got error from it ) but I can't and now I reopened the deb file and seems like it is ok but the problem is that I can't close the window I mentioned before

paper ermine
#

Try a reboot

warm wigeon
#

but that window is still there

paper ermine
#

What window? Terminal? GDebi?

warm wigeon
#

this is it

#

I can't close it

#

this happened after the error I told you about then I reopened the deb file to install it again and seems like it is good for now but this window is still here I can't close it pressing the x button doesn't do something and the same thing with alt-f4

paper ermine
#

In terminal sudo killall gdebi-gtk

warm wigeon
#

I don't see it now

#

actually as a beginner in linux sometimes I feel like I messed things up so I go back to timeshift but the problem is some stuff is still the same and some of it has been changed

#

I mean after using timeshift

paper ermine
#

I don't think timeshift backs up the home directory and that is why some things don't change

warm wigeon
#

is there is a way to back up everything

paper ermine
warm wigeon
#

is it ok to use unactivated windows

paper ermine
#

That would probably work

warm wigeon
#

and is it only a trail for a few time?

#

and then it tells me to activate it?
