After I updated my Studio install from v20.04 to v22.04 many of my apps totally stopped responding when I click on them. Including snap. I did nothing special. I let the update do it's thing. It said it completed successfully. After I rebooted many apps no longer open. Does anyone have any ideas what I did wrong and how I can correct it? Will I have to install from cold? Or is there a work-around?

If you checked the release notes prior to upgrade (https://ubuntustudio.org/ubuntu-studio-22-04-lts-release-notes/) you'll have read
"Due to the change in desktop environment, direct upgrades to Ubuntu Studio 22.04 LTS from versions prior to 21.10 are unsupported..
Breakage is very possible, thus why your upgrade isn't supported; and you'd have noted the same if you read the notes you prior to upgrade too (ie. you'll have seen or been given a link to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JammyUpgrades#Ubuntu_Studio_Desktops)
Direct upgrades to Ubuntu Studio 22.04 are supported from Ubuntu Studio 21.10.
Your Ubuntu base system still offers upgrades, and it will in fact upgrade; but breakage can occur with your Ubuntu Studio desktop due to the change of documented change of desktop, and warnings from Ubuntu Studio.
