Thanks. I went with your idea to download the new file again and this time it is working fine. This is on my new mini laptop. I think I will leave it alone on my desktop and my other laptop. At the moment I can't see any advantage, except that the old, deb version will no longer be supported.On 27/07/17 19:49, Neil wrote:That is what I am using at the moment. I downloaded that deb file and used it to install the program. But the company has now announced a brand new version for Linux. This entails downloading a file simply named pcloud. Make it executable and then run it. That is when I ran into problems.I just installed the deb version on two different systems (Mint + Ubuntu) and got it working straight away with a free account. The new pcloud AppImage version on the other hand failed straight away on both systems with an error similar to yours so it's presumably borked in some way. Unless I'm compiling and packaging myself, I don't want any installed applications on my systems that aren't seen/managed by the distribution package manager anyway - AppImage is a nice idea but useless in real life. Turns out you can get the old deb type installer by visiting this specific URL: https://www.pcloud.com/free-online-cloud-file-storage.html Cheers
