Hello,

I am running Ubuntu 18.04 and Notepad++ will not launch.

I have tried uninstalling several times but to no avail?

When I click on launch nothing happens?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mick.

Are you running under Proton or WINE or installing a snap package (http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2018/04/install-notepad-in-ubuntu-18-0416-04-via-snap/)?
