On following the installation instructions the command "sudo ./install" results in an error: sudo ./install command not found.

I'm pretty new to Linux, and am using Linux Mint XFCE on a Katana GF66 11UE.

This is the code I ran in the terminal

`beallbell@C:~/Downloads$ tar -xzvf MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin.tar.gz MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/ MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/ MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/mcontrolcenter MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/mcontrolcenter-helper MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/mcontrolcenter-helper.conf MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/mcontrolcenter.helper.service MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/mcontrolcenter.desktop MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/app/mcontrolcenter.svg MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/install.sh MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/uninstall.sh

beallbell@C:~/Downloads$ pwd /home/beallbell/Downloads

beallbell@C:~/Downloads$ cd MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin

beallbell@C:~/Downloads/MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin$ sudo ./install [sudo] password for beallbell:
sudo: ./install: command not found

beallbell@C:~/Downloads/MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin$ sudo bin/install [sudo] password for beallbell:
sudo: bin/install: command not found`

Thank you in advance.

you have to cd into the directory (in this case MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin in the downloads folder) and type in sudo ./install.sh. Not sudo install or sudo bin/install. Here's a little command you can type in to make this easy: cd ~Downloads/MControlCenter-0.4.1-bin/ && sudo ./install.sh
