Upon opening up the app, it asked for a password, so I gave the password I would usually give for every kind of security measure I always give, and saved the password. After entering my password, the following message appearred, "Cannot execute command ' '/usr/bin/partitionmanager-bin --dontsu''. After I click, OK, it tells me that I can use it without Administrative Permissions, but I cannot edit anything, which was very serious, because after agreeing to do so, I cannot use any part of the the interface, with the exception of View, Settings and Help; none of which help me do anything at all on the partition. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start Program and enter password 2.Click ok when it says "Cannot execute command..." 3.click "run without administrative privilages" when prompted Actual Results: I have access only to view, Settings and Help buttons on top of app, and with nothing else in the interface. Expected Results: password should have worked (unless I somehow used the wrong password, the only one I use on my computer), and I could begin using the app according to anything the app can do with any computer that it is compatible with. i.e. Make/change/resize partitions. there should probably be some way of undoing the saving of passwords, in case someone actually uses the wrong password.
Version 1.0.3 is too old (about 6 years old). Newer version should work.

Created attachment 97298 [details] attachment-25415-0.html Please forgive me. I thought this was for one of my phone's apps. I haven't had a reply in so long I ditched the computer I was using. Forgive me for my confusion.

Well, this looks like a bug in the older version, e.g. see bug #293229, so most likely you had an old version and that's why it failed. Unfortunately both Debian and hence Mint didn't package new versions of partition manager. Without having administrative rights you can only view some stuff, you can't edit partitions. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 293229 ***
