If i click on Ubuntu Software, it doesn't open. I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04. I tried try to upgrade all packages, but it doesn't fix this problem.
If I try to run killall software-center
there is no process with this name, and software-center
returns command not found
. If I try to reinstall it with apt I have these results:
