Open up a browser and do a search on "image hosting", pick an image hosting website of your choice, upload your image to the image hosting website and use the URL that the image hosting website provided you for usage in your post.

I installed Google Chrome using Aptus/web/GoogleChrome/install and found that chrome had become the main web browser although I had on first start up unchecked the "make default " tick box
From the terminal, use:Code Select

I appear to have lost the ability to edit the autostart options (the minus sign and the box on the right). Neither are present now and therefore I am only able to add new options. I can't edit or delete.
I wanted to append a couple of screen dumps, but can't see how, so below is information about my system.

Desktops / sparky-aptus-upgrade opens in ...
Last post by mirto - February 12, 2023, 09:04:39 AMHi all,
I have a Sparkylinux 2022.12 KDE version updated daily in a dual monitor configuration.
When I boot the sparky-aptus-upgrade window always opens in the secondary monitor.
How can I force sparky-aptus-upgrade to open the window in the primary monitor?
