    Hello
    I have a problem with the export. Choosing an export path when I click save Inkscape does not respect the path and always puts a path similar to this: /run/user/1000/doc/baf92a3f/abc.png.
    It happens to me both when exporting a single document or page, or when exporting in batches.
    The version of Inkscape I use is Inkscape 1.2.2 (732a01da63, ​​2022-12-09, custom) on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS 64 bits, with Gnome 42.5 and X11 window system.
    If anyone has had this happen and knows how to fix it, I'd appreciate your help.

    Which Installer was used?  Snap version seems to have issues with permissions.

    I installed from ubuntu software, that's the snap version right?

    I have also verified that saving as svg and trying to open gives this error:
    Could not detect file format. An attempt to open it as svg has also failed. :(
    I have Ubuntu and windows 11 installed on the same computer, I don't know if it has something to do with these errors...

    I would try the PPA installer. https://inkscape.org/release/1.2.2/gnulinux/

    I run Windows and Linux Mint (dual boot) on two machines without issue. Mint is Ubuntu based.

    I have tried what you have recommended and, after trying a couple of times, it has worked, thank you very much!!😊

    If you are still searching for a solution, I was able to solve my problem by installing with the Debian installer rather than the Snap installer.
