@tgerbic Thank you very much for sharing your experience. What I take from this is, that I will also create an external clone boot HD for my Linux Mint. I don't know yet how to do that, but I'm confident I'll figure it out in time.
@all I am well aware that this is a Pico forum and, as I have read, Linux Mint problems have also been addressed here.
And based on that, I have not had any success with the helpful suggestions here for getting back into my Linux Mint 22.2.
Everything I try to recover calls me to enter the password. And a new password is also accepted in case of inputting it via passwd „newpassword“ but I further can't access Timeshift or User and groups. All other programs can be accessed.
I didn't think it would be so difficult for beginners in Linux that one was virtually blocked and can't update anything to return to the original state.
I think therefore its the only measure to completely update my PC and only use MMedit either in a VM or on one of my Windows PCs too.
