Applications disappearing in Lite 4.2 beta Viber Playonlinux
#1
Not sure that I am writting on right place.
First I am new in linux, maybe I install aplications on wrong way...
I have often disapear aplications from linux 4.2beta.
Simple like they was never installed on my lite before, just empty icon.
For example playonlinux, viber, etcher...
I yust install them again and they work for some time again until disapear.
Is this problem with beta lite, or I install them on wrong way?

Hi there, just quick though. Have you installed Linux Lite on a hard drive or using it from USB directly?
If from USB, it's called the "Live" version and it is like running from a DVD and changes are not kept after a reboot.
I read that you can install to another USB key if you have two but I have never tried myself.

Cheers!

I'll test this on Playonlinux over next few days and let you know. I am installing Playonlinux from Lite Software.

Mine was from synaptic, but will now also install from lite software to see if there will be difference.
Btw maybe is there some connection with bug on my system, when I uninstal unwanted software
for example simple-scan icon in menus stay. But on other distro always icon are removed on uninstall.

Update
Look like I find some connection, when I install playonlinux my viber now disapear.
I download viber from download.cdn.viber.com/cdn/desktop/Linux/viber.deb and for install it I use only
right click and istall.

That's because we rename many Menu names to make it easier for people to understand linux programs. Linux Lite is a gateway OS, for Windows refugees, we don't expect linux people to go messing with our heavily modified DE, removing default apps.

I installed Viber and Playonlinux, no problems.

Oh look like there is problem, this installation is much complicated for us new linux users, and on manjaro dont have problem
of that kind, look like ubuntu distros need another aproach.
Thx in any case.
