I have been using Slack (Desktop App) for months now, without any problem. Today, for no apparent reason, the laptop (HP Envy) froze and since then Slack is not working anymore. It seems to try to launch, but then nothing. Any ideas?

Looks like there is a confirmed issue with the snap package.

We’re very sorry for the trouble there. We are experiencing some difficulties with the Slack Snap package. Our team is working hard to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. For now, you can access Slack via a browser or on our Direct Download version: https://slack.com/intl/en-gb/downloads/linux?eu_nc=1

A fix should be available in the next snap slack package release.
