Thanks to Colin Law I have a work around for #1

Is it possible that the difference is only that in the version you have

Accounts page that shows everything then you should be able to right

I discovered that 22.04 BROKE FUSE which is required for appimage 
applications, that libfuse2 needed to be installed to fix that problem.

Both have been done and thus the crisis has been averted.
