Anbox isn't starting up on my PC at all

16,650

What worked for me is running the session manager then clicking on the icon.

first run session manager by entering this command

anbox session-manager

and then click on the Anbox icon from launcher

Better way would be to add this service inside Startup Applications

to do that open Startup Applications > Add > in command write anbox session-manager

and you'd be able to use Anbox without running that command on every boot or keeping a minimised terminal windows.

Start up Application

Bonjour, I was a frustrated Windows user now converted completely to Ubuntu and learning the power of Linux, I'm not too good at code But I'm a curious person and I generally generate good questions from that curiousness. And the only thing that I know in French is "Bonjour" Few things you should know about me I Prefer Gnome with Adapta over Everything else. I'll always prefer GUI over CLI if that option is available. I generally use my computer for watching movies, listening to music and surfing the web. I'm planning to add more points in this bullet list soon.
