The problem with the program is audacity : once it “hung” and had to “kill” the process. Now every time it starts it displays the following window:

audacity

It’s impossible to restore the project, where I clicked and clicked. I close the window and this appears:

And the program closes.

I tried to remove audacity ( apt-get remove audacity , apt-get purge audacity ), and then reinstall, but did not help.

  • Run the program.
  • Go to the console and find out its pid (for example, ps -e | grep -i audacity).
  • Suppose this pid is numbered 10,000.
  • lsof -p 10000 will give you all the files opened by this process.

Or you can run the program from the console under strace:

 strace -e trace=file [имя_программы]

and see all file operations. By the output of this command, it will be possible to understand where the program is looking for the files it needs.

    Just run in the console.

     rm -rf ~/.audacity-data/AutoSave/*

    If it does not help, then it will help the sniper.

     rm -rf ~/.audacity-data

      Another, not the most intelligent, but reliable method is to search for this “new project” on the file system: by the file name using find-type f, by the contents of files with any name using grep -R. Find the file - then, most likely, it will be obvious what to delete.
