Unread post by historyb » 2018-04-02, 03:01

I tried to start palemoon but it will not start and returns this error nessage Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pantheon-filechooser-module". I have uninstalled palemoon and reinstalled it but the error message comes back.

Adding more information it seems to only happen with palemoon

Thank you all. As of today after having the Laptop off all night Palemoon started right up. I do not know what happened but it's back :) Yay!
