Not able to Update

Oh yes, thanks for reminding me.

So far, everything looks good. The last thing- kill that pop up.
Please run

sudo nano /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

At the very bottom, change the prompt to never

It should look like:
Prompt=never

Then ctrl+x, y, enter

If you prefer, you can use sed to do it on one command:

sudo sed -i 's/Prompt=.*/Prompt=never/' /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

Reboot.

Already Present.

Should I Upgrade, Now?

You can run

sudo apt upgrade

Or

sudo apt dist-upgrade

But please do not yet run the GUI upgrader Tool.
Zorin OS does not yet have any Direct Upgrade option and Zorin OS 17 is not anywhere near release.
So... If you perform a release Upgrade at this time, it will break Zorin OS. You will have to reinstall the Operating System.

Can you please open the Settings app from the App Menu
Then navigate to Notifications. Move to the Applications tab.
Please post a screenshot of that screen.

Do not have the screenshot plugin, removed it after seeing one post on the forum. But, everything here is on urgent and active. Should I turn Something OFF?

Tagging @AZorin and @zorink to review unusual activity.

Partly, this is due to the prospect that the release-upgrades prompt is set to never and yet, the system is offering to upgrade the OS to Ubuntu 22.04.

I suppose not, I am now getting the prompt to restart now, Should I?

Should I remove these?

u can type history in terminal to list all commands which one of them may caused that error, and print the result here

I removed this line, Cause I no longer use Hibernate. But, I Started to have boot problem. So, I used the advanced options for Zorin booted up and then added the line back. But, it gave me more boot problems. Took me to black command line. I Used advanced options again to log in but, What should I Do?

Installing Boot Repair Fixed each and every problem for me :blush:

sudo apt install boot-repair
boot-repair

Thank You @Aravisian, @anon6471198 and @eid for such a professional and personnel support :heart:
All the Problems have been Solved :smiley:
