open a file manager
bitter pelican
yup
bitter pelican
its a Thunar
rose hazel
ok
bitter pelican
file manager
rose hazel
so ur on an xfce distro
bitter pelican
yeah
rose hazel
latest mint?
bitter pelican
yup
rose hazel
ok so in xfce 4.18, the thunar file manager has a built-in search function
bitter pelican
I searched through the entire file system but i can't find it
rose hazel
click Filesystem on the left
or put the location to /
also then go to view menu
and turn on View hidden stuff
then click the magnifying glass search tool, and look for the name of file exact spelling and case, then press enter.
also,
repeat the same thing with a root mode file manager
do sudo thunar from terminal.
if your file landed in some root (admin's home folder) then u cant see it from a normal file manager
rose hazel
use root thunar like i said
bitter pelican
yeah i used but when it doesn't find anything it doesn't display anything like i waited for more than a minute i does not find the file
rose hazel
open sudo thunar
go into the admin's folder called root
look around.
you probably turned your conf file into a file named Music. (through incorrect use of the move/rename command)
never messed around in root
or in root mode, in the terminal.

I made a lot of mistakes setting up wireguard initially, once I learned it, it all became very simple.. but just uninstall wireguard, make sure you delete the folder, and reinstall it again, and then start conf all over.
