  1. Before posting, I searched for similar discussions and found several. For example, here's one: I already have Enpass running in Windows, Android and other Linux installations. So I'm not sure why this one is different. Well, the version is newer: Ubuntu MATE 23.10, and is running in a VirtualBox VM, so maybe that has something to do with it. At any rate, I followed instructions to install, and that went without error. I'm able to start the app, but when I select Dropbox as my vault, it tells me that is opening Dropbox in a browser to authenticate, but the browser is never opened. I found a suggestion to try running Enpass as root user, and that actually worked; it opened a browser and went to the Dropbox site. Well, obviously, I don't want to use the root user to access Enpass, so I copied the link from the root browser, then exited root. I then opened up my default browser (Firefox), and restarted Enpass. When I told it to use Dropbox for my vault, it again sat there spinning. But I jumped in Firefox and pasted the link I had copied from root. It authenticated me, and then passed the authentication back to Enpass. This actually worked! :-O Enpass finally asked me for my Dropbox password; for those who find this post by search, at this point you must enter your *master* password, not your normal Dropbox password. Hopefully this helps somebody. Let me know if anyone would like to try to debug this. I have the VM backed up, so I can easily recreate the problem scenario.
