I renamed the user snap/chromium folder and tried running it from cli again. This time I got the popup attached. It still won't run but thought this may give a clue.
It seems the non-existent "process" is locked under my old hostname which I changed a few days before I upgraded. I assume there is a lock file somewhere with this info. Any ideas? Clicking the Unlock button doesn't do anything, it still won't launch. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2022-04-27 17-53-26.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1970611/+attachment/5584417/+files/Screenshot%20from%202022-04-27%2017-53-26.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970611 Title: Chromium fails to start from snap after 22.04 upgrade Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Just went to open chromium to test a localhost website after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04.
