<p>Hi,</p>
<p>the /run path in Linux shouldn't be used for file access as it is
intended for use by applications, not by end users.</p>
<p>If you have a file share to access in Linux, mount it to a path
in your home folder or perhaps off from /mnt and assign the
permissions required to access it there.<br>

<div dir="ltr">I did a quick test. I installed QGIS 3.22 on a
Windows 7 computer, created a project. Switched to Linux Mint,
used the file manager to navigate to the Windows computer,
double clicked the project and it opened correctly. The path
that QGIS displays in the properties/info panel is:
<div>
<table style="margin:0px 10px" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0"
border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<p style="margin:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><span style="font-family:"Lato,Open Sans,Lucida Grande,Segoe UI,Arial,sans-serif";font-weight:600;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Path</span></p>
</td>
<td>
<p style="margin:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><a moz-do-not-send="true"><span style="font-family:"arial,sans-serif";text-decoration-line:underline;color:rgb(114,159,207)">/run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=w7,share=c$/Temp/ASSESSOR_ROADS_2018_3.shp</span></a></p>

I went back to the Windows computer, exported the shapefile to
a gpkg, saved the project. Reopened it in Mint, all good. QGIS
info for the gpkg layer:</div>
<div>
<table style="margin:0px 10px" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0"

<p style="margin:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><span style="font-family:"Lato,Open Sans,Lucida Grande,Segoe UI,Arial,sans-serif";font-weight:600;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Path</span></p>

I also tested putting the gpkg in a folder below the project
file and that opened correctly on the Linux computer.</div>
<div>So I suggest that you start with a simple test project.
Also, the project .qgz file is just a gzipped xml file. So you
can unzip it, open the .qgs file in a text editor and
search for "source=" to see what path info has been saved with
the project.</div>
