Evening,
I created a Linux Mint USB drive for university, but unfortunately, I'm not that familiar with the topic. Why can't I save data to a bootable USB drive after using it to boot Linux Mint? And if I can, how does it work, or do I need a second USB drive? And which Linux is actually the best in terms of security?
Best regards and thanks in advance!

Loading...When I play games, my graphics card is usually at 85-87°C. As far as I know, I have the MSI Afterburner app configured, and I always check to see if the app is running before starting a game. So, I'm worried because I think it's pretty hot and I'm hoping for tips on how to…
I have been having this problem for a while now, that no matter which app I start, I get these pop-ups from Windows (pictures are attached). I don't use the MS gaming overlay at all, and I've turned off the Xbox Game Bar and everything else. It's getting annoying because those windows just keep piling…
I got my dad's old laptop today. We reset it together, and everything worked fine. I unscrewed the back of it today because one of the batteries wasn't properly seated, so I reattached it, but didn't do anything else. Now the laptop is displaying this. What can I do?
I built a PC with the parts listed below. I played on it for about 5 hours and then it crashed when I tried to start Valorant. From that point on the PC would not turn on and always froze when throbber The problem has now been resolved but since then my audio no longer…
Lately, I've been unexpectedly getting a black screen for a few seconds, then my screen comes back. Most of the time, the taskbar is bugging me, and my Discord app is freezing. I downloaded Malwarebytes to check for viruses. I found nothing. Can someone please tell me what the problem is? Thanks 😀
For this, you need a persistent partition on the USB stick. Because the live session is only “baked” as an ISO file on the USB stick and then it is read-only.
There are several tools to set up persistent partitions. TAILS comes directly with a tool. Perhaps this is an idea for you, especially with regard to
TAILS uses the TOR network to conceal its traffic if you have security. Doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to log in anywhere, or your anonymity is fussy.
Otherwise you can set up a persistent partition via Ventoy via option -> Partition Configuration:
Then this appears here:
For a live session, Linux Mint with Xfce or Mate desktop is certainly not bad. Cinnamon just takes too long to start because it has to load significantly more from the USB stick.
By the way, the biggest security problem usually sits in front of the PC and not in the PC…
Anonymity(Privacy) != Security. But otherwise good contribution.
You’re absolutely right!
I personally would use Tails. It’s pretty good. In my opinion, if you have similarities with MacOS, you see the operation. You can also create a persistent partition without a second USB stick. It is also very intuitive, so perfect for beginners. You can also set what to store(Wlan passwords, printers, …). It should also be mentioned that the entire network traffic is managed through the TOR network. Just remember the Passphrase. Tails was also used by Snowden, for example.
Tutorials to Tails there are very many on YouTube.
A detailed guide how to install it from Windows can be found here: https://tails.net/install/windows/index.en.html
Beautiful Christmas!
Anonymity(Privacy) != Security.
The safest would be CubesOS, because it is so special and very picky in hardware it only uses those who need it. In addition, many things only run badly or not at all.
A good distro, with regular and stable updates would be Fedora. In addition, Fedora Silverblue could be a safer one because there is more insulation here.
Thank you. Do you also happen to know if you can also save your progress when working with the bootstick with which Linux started, in order not to lose its progress next time, or do I have to save it all on a separate USB stick?
If you create the stick with Rufus on Windows, then you can create an area for persistent storage, in this persistent storage, the changes and, if necessary, Data that you request or download is stored. (Not all Linux distributions support a persistent memory). Also note that the stick has more capacity than the Linux Distro.
You should install it directly on the USB stick and not only start as a live boot.
However, I would strongly advise you because it will cause extreme performance problems and you can’t use security features. Please install it as a dual boat or directly as the only system on the device.
Oh yes, make sure you use a live distro image when creating the boot stick. (Also live distro images are not available on any Linux).

Because of such people as you, I love this website. Thank you
Which Linux version should be taken is just as much as God should believe in.
Normally, one assumes the religion of his parents and then one can still convert later.
If you have never listened to a religion, then it is, of course, difficult to look for oneself.
I personally belong to the “OpenSuSE” belief. I like the above-average system hardness and safety and I am very well aware of the resulting limitations and problems.
Of course, there are “harder” and safer distributions – but they naturally also have more severe limitations in terms of compatibility.
Of course, depending on the application, I also use other distributions. Not only the PiOS for Raspberries but also Debian, for example, because there is a real-time kernel and Ubuntu because this can be operated very well “out of the box” with touchscreen.
For productivity, I prefer OpenSuSE. It is more important to me that the graphical interface is the KDE because of the many useful features and helpers that greatly simplify working life.

You might want to know what you want to ask.
Your text has to do with the title nix.
Yeah, you need two.
Yes, the best Linux distro is Cinnamon, at least if you want to feel particularly homey as an ex-Windows user, you can adjust the most appropriate.
Only the window buttons interfere with me because you can’t show them the same as with Win10, KDE Plasma, Mate, Xfce.
Here the comparison:
Cinnamon:
——————————————
Win10, KDE Plasma, Mate, Xfce:
——————————————
For me, this is a really serious mistake that should be corrected urgently. Either you return to metathemes or do something else so that the window screens get their correct size back to the edge.
At the moment, it feels really cheap-home-likely cobbled together to only have to look at these semi-finished windows. It’s just crap.
But otherwise in all other areas I have to admit, Cinnamon is the best.
Cinnamon is a desktop interface and no Linux distribution.
