Open Terminal & execute commands one by one...Will install all Three...

But MullVad has problems itself...its mentioned on their site.so we will have to wait till it gets sorted out..

Mullvad has problems with 18.04-based distros. Worked fine in other Debian and Ubuntu from 17.10 and earlier. Anyhow, I can find a way around that through openvpn or a similar program, I'm using it (can't remember the name) to get Mullvad to work in 18.04-based distros (Ubuntu MATE and Linux Mint 19).

I have not tried installing through Terminal, only using GDebi, which has worked. (referring to all three programs) I will try that and report back.

I will try that tomorrow.

In the meantime, I went to update my copy, and was given a download link which started a download of an .api program. PrathamOS asked me if I wanted to open it with FoxIt Reader or Other. What do I use to do this update?

Just open a terminal and write prathamos-update and press enter...updates will be installed...

I tried that and nothing happened. I tried it again and was told it was already running. Seven hours later, it said it was still running. I shut the computer down. I have very fast Internet, should not be the case. This morning I opened it up again and tried.

zaivala@zaivala-PrathamOS-201807210141:~$ prathamos-update
/usr/bin/prathamos-update: line 58: mpv: command not found
Another Instance Is Already Running!!
zaivala@zaivala-PrathamOS-201807210141:~$


Despite the updates I did using sudo apt upgrade (reported yesterday), I still report as running 1.0, not 1.2.

For days now, the system has said it is updating. I can't let your OS take over my computer. I have set Grub to boot to my other OSes first, but PrathamOS has set itself at top of the list after boot, presumably because it thinks it is not done yet. I have updated everything I can upgrade, and it still is set at 1.0 and says it needs to update.

Time to cut bait. I will install another friendly OS here to get my Grub back. Two hours work just to get my system back.

Great !!

I would suggest that is the best way to go for you...Couple of points..
  • "can't let your OS take over my computer" => No one is interested in your computer...none as for PrathamOS
  • grub thing.. => any OS which gets installed gets the grub...Its a linux thing...
  • next time around...if you try another "NOT SO FRIENDLY OS", please go through the documentation and if that Distro has a dedicated YouTube Channel just for visualization of every aspect of the OS, DO TRY TO FOLLOW IT

Good Luck.
