Sorry, but of course one can use Sagemath 9.0 on a Linux computer. :-) Windows machines are difficult to use to run any software that does not come from Microsoft; it could be that a particular configuration of security features, anti-virus software, perhaps even malware, on *your* machine that causes this particular breakage. > > > > Le mardi 28 janvier 2020 13:07:08 UTC+1, E.
