Trouble getting this installed on the latest version of Linux Mint.

Anyone have any advice as to getting this installed. The simple tarball guess online aren't helping.

Do you get any error message when starting UAD through the command line? Depending on the version of mint you're using, the glibc may be to old. You can doublecheck your current version of glibc with the command ldd --version

@nachter Let me preface this by saying I'm a moron so take that into consideration. I get an invalid Url message. The glibc version is 2.31-0ubuntu9.9

I am unable to get it running on Linux Mint too. It says

No application is registered as handling this file

Are there any prerequisites to run this program?

This sounds something like a problem with file associations in your file manager. What happens, when you run the application through the terminal?

That's the error response i got while running it through the terminal using xdg-open.

That also could be a problem with the file associations you've set. Just change to the directory, where you've extracted the program. Then start it with ./uad_gui-linux

I get a "no method avaliable for opening"

You downloaded one of these 2 archive ? Right ?

  • https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater/releases/download/0.5/uad_gui-linux.tar.gz
  • https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater/releases/download/0.5/uad_gui-linux-opengl.tar.gz

The executable file is inside. You have to decompress the archive and then you just have to double click on the executable uad_gui-linux.

It's weird because there is an archive manager preinstalled on Linux MInt. Well install one if you don't have one. Install nautilus (it's a file manager but it can handles most of the archive formats) or the tar commands in the terminal :

tar -xf uad_gui-linux.tar.gz

@0x192 That was the first thing that I tried when I downloaded. I get a
Invalid url: '/home/user/Desktop/uad_gui-linux' given, exiting No ':' in the uri

I updated mint to version 21 from 20.3 and now it works for whatever reason.

I updated as well, but am still getting the same error messages... anyone find a solution to this??
