# Troubleshooting

#### USB Not Booting

* Fix: Ensure "Secure Boot" and "Fast Boot" are disabled in your Windows UEFI/BIOS settings. Ensure the boot order prioritizes the USB drive over the Windows Boot Manager.

#### Wi-Fi Not Working After Install

* Fix: This happens if you skipped the "Third-Party Drivers" checkbox. Connect your laptop to a router via an Ethernet cable or use USB Tethering from your smartphone, then open the "Software & Updates" app, go to the "Additional Drivers" tab, and apply the proprietary Wi-Fi driver.

#### Package Installation Errors ("Unable to locate package" or "Unmet Dependencies")

* Fix for missing dependencies: Run `sudo apt --fix-broken install` to force Ubuntu to automatically download missing prerequisite files.
* Fix for locating local `.deb` files: Always ensure you are in the correct directory and use `./filename.deb` so `apt` knows to look locally.

#### Low Disk Space

* Fix: Over time, old updates and cached packages pile up. Clean them out with: `sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt autoclean`
