Does this only occur when clicking on the notification icon in the system tray?

What happens if you open Discover manually and check for/install updates?

Can you attach any screenshots, logs, errors seen etc?

Does 'sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade' work for you without errors?

Thanks.

1. No. The same thing occurs if I run Discover directly, not only from notification. The only differece is that if I run Discover directly it shows a list of updates but the window freezes (all buttons inactive) and automatically closes after a while.

2. There are no errors displayed. Where I can find proper logs please?

3. Yes, sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade works fine.
