If you install the Snap package, ensure you also connect it to your password
manager:
### Snapcraft Store

```shellsession
$ sudo snap connect github-desktop:password-manager-service

We are currently testing out a new version of the Snap that requires using the
`classic` enclosure, as GitHub Desktop has integrations to launch your chosen
shell or editor which are not supported in the `strict` enclosure.

**If you are currently running the Snap installed from `edge`**

You will be prompted to manually upgrade to the `beta` channel as an installed
application cannot upgrade it's enclosure via an update.

Without this, GitHub Desktop cannot store or retrieve account details it
requires in the user's keychain.
To upgrade manually, run these commands:

```
$ snap remove github-desktop
$ snap install github-desktop --beta --classic
```
