Unable to start MQTT Explorer in Ubuntu 22.04

Mysteriously yesterday Explorer stopped working and would not restart, having worked fine for > 6 months. I wonder if there is a snap problem. I have attached the strace output, if that helps.

All I can think is that I connected my old hard drive to retrieve some backups. All hell broke loose later and my MQTT Python apps also seemed to start having problems. The server is working fine. mqtt_strace.txt

The solution is not to run as root - unless it is sandboxed. I did this from the command line but how to do this from the desktop app?

I fixed this by installing the Appimage rather than the snap version.
