TeamViewer used to work great; how do I fix: Launching TeamViewer GUI ... Aborted (core dumped)?
I'm running Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS jammy, and TeamViewer used to work great but I haven't been able to get it to launch the past few times I've tried and I'm not sure what's going on. I just tried downloading the latest deb but no luck.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, per the gui.log:
Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway. qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in "" This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. Available platform plugins are: xcb.

Hello @travishardiman,
Welcome to the TeamViewer Community and thank you for providing the information! 🎉
Please go ahead and follow these steps:
- Edit the custom.conf file which is located in /etc/gdm3 (Ubuntu)
- Uncomment WaylandEnable=false by deleting the # at the beginning of the line
- Reboot the VNC Server computer
- Uninstall and then install by using these commands:
sudo apt purge teamviewer wget https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer_amd64.deb (this can vary based on the package) sudo apt install ./teamviewer_amd64.deb sudo teamviewer setup
Try to follow these steps and let us know if the installation worked now.
Best,
Justin

Please go ahead and follow these steps:
Edit the custom.conf file which is located in /etc/gdm3 (Ubuntu)
Uncomment WaylandEnable=false by deleting the # at the beginning of the line
Reboot the VNC Server computer
I use Wayland for other apps and fractional scaling on my device, so I can't disable it.
I tried this:
sudo apt purge teamviewer
wget https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer_amd64.deb (this can vary based on the package)
sudo apt install ./teamviewer_amd64.deb
sudo teamviewer setup

I have the same issue. TeamViewer used to run fine, but as of late whenever I try to launch the app, it crashes to the desktop. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Teamviewer, but the app keeps crashing to the desktop. I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS (Focal Fossa) (64 bit).

I don't know if it's any help, but my issue resolved itself. After rebooting my computer, TeamViewer works again. I don't know what happened and how it fixed itself. Can't find anything in the log files nor in the terminal output. No more Aborted (core dumped), maybe something crashed in the background (X11)? Well, I'm happy it's working again, because TeamViewer is an essential tool for me.

I just tried again, since it's been several reboots and updates since my last post, and it still doesn't work for me:
