Hi, when I try to run the Install Updates program, I get this message:

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

This has never happened before. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hi mweelrea, and a warm welcome to the LL community 

Turning to your problem - this means the updating process was interrupted.
Sometimes this happened to me. With the Linux Lite updating process, it continues in the background, evidence for the ongoing process disappearing from your display, only showing again when the process has completed (which can take several minutes). So, it's easy with LL to accidentally shutdown your computer while updating is in progress.

To complete the updating, open a terminal.
Type the following:

Code:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

It might ask for your password, then let it run to completion.

Hope this helps.
Mike
