So I use Chromium for work. I installed it through Discovery and selected the “From Fedora Linux” option. It’s worked fine for months. Then this morning, I closed out of it then opened it up later and it simply would not launch. It gives the little bouncy icon for a moment, then nothing. So I fiddle around with it, and downloaded the flatpak version, which worked, but I don’t want it. Any idea how I can get it back up and running?

Running Plasma 6.1.5, Wayland. I already tried hopping into the Gnome desktop and that didn’t work. Thanks in advance!

    Yes all lowercase but that should work. It sounds almost like chromium got uninstalled or moved. Try uninstalling through discover and reinstalling, if that doesn’t work go to your application menu and right click on the chromium launcher and select “edit application” then click the “Application” tab, the “Program” field should say where it’s looking for the chromium binary, what does it say there? Also if you type “which chromium” into the terminal, what does it say?
