After asking this question I found a solution.
However after applying the commands which effectively removed snap-store
I then get a message indicating an application update to core 16
the snapd runtime environment.
On selecting Update All
a message appears Unable to Install Updates: snap has no updates available
.
snap install snap-store has made no effect.
What must I do to correct this problem, clear the Update
flag and ensure that any installed snaps are automatically updated?
Restart gnome software by using
killall gnome-software
orsudo killall gnome-software
command solve the problem if it's a problem in gnome software or snap store.
